Stepping up in the same colour and case shape
The Parker collection sits at the dressier end of Michael Kors' range, and the MK5626 makes that clear immediately: crystal-set indices, a pavé-embellished bezel, and sub-dials that earn their place on the dial by actually working. At 39mm it reads large on slender wrists, which is entirely the intention — this is a watch that announces itself rather than disappearing under a sleeve. The two-tone bracelet mixes plain steel links with gold PVD-plated centres, and that rhythm carries through from the case to the clasp without feeling forced. The deployant fastening is push-button and adjustable by individual links, so fitting it properly takes minutes rather than a jeweller.

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?
Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.
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?
20mm. 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.
