Stepping up in the same colour and case shape
A 39 mm stainless steel case sits at the heart of this chronograph, its fixed bezel set with clear crystals and accented in rose gold tone against the predominantly silver finish. The silver-grey dial carries alternating Arabic numerals and stick indices, with luminous rose gold-tone hands and hour markers. Three sub-dials handle the 60-second, 60-minute, and 24-hour functions, while a date window sits at six o'clock. The 18 mm link bracelet fastens with a dual push-button deployment clasp.

Learn more about Michael Kors
Michael Kors founded his label in New York in 1981 and built it on accessible American luxury. The watches are produced under licence by Fossil Group and have been among the highest-volume fashion watches sold worldwide.
The design leans decorative: gold and rose gold plating, pavé crystal settings, oversized chronograph subdials that are frequently non-functional, and bracelets that echo the jewellery line. Movements are quartz.
These are styling-led accessories, priced accordingly, and they are honest about what they are.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
Water resistance explainedWill 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 comparedDoes it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedWhat size strap does it take?
18mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's, though at 39mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
