The AR11500 sits in Emporio Armani's Diver line, built around a round 43mm stainless steel case measuring 12mm thick. The green dial carries luminous hands and hour markers alongside chronograph sub-dials, a 24-hour subdial, and a date display, all read through a mineral crystal. A unidirectional rotating bezel frames the dial in keeping with the diver format. The silver-toned stainless steel bracelet fastens with a deployant clasp and runs to a 22mm lug width. Water resistance is rated to 100 metres. The watch weighs 160g on the wrist.

Learn more about Emporio Armani

Giorgio Armani launched Emporio Armani in 1981 as a younger, more accessible line beneath the main label. Watches followed under licence, and since 2000 they have been produced by Fossil Group, which holds the manufacturing and distribution rights.

The watches are fashion accessories rather than horological objects, and the house does not claim otherwise. Movements are bought-in quartz and Japanese automatic calibres, cased in designs that follow the clothing line's aesthetic: muted palettes, clean dials, and a preference for restraint over ornament.

That restraint is the appeal. Where much of the licensed-fashion category reaches for size and shine, Emporio Armani generally does not, and the better references in the line are quietly proportioned watches at prices well under the Swiss entry point.

Can I swim with it?

Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.

Water resistance explained

Will the glass scratch?

It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.

Sapphire, mineral and acrylic compared

Does it need a battery?

Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
