If you are a fashionista, chances are you might have heard of the names “Giorgio Armani” and “Emporio Armani” before. While the former is an expensive luxury clothing line for the wealthy and influential, the latter is a more accessible clothing and accessory line that is targeted among young adults. But Emporio Armani does not only sell clothes and bags. Emporio Armani also features different collections of watches for both men and women in different styles, colors, and functions.
Swiss brand names like Rolex, Omega, and Patek Philippe dominate the watch industry. But this Italian company does not only have trendy clothes and nice accessories. It also has timepieces that are equally stylish and useful especially for men. This article will list some of the best Emporio Armani watches that every man should own.
Armani Exchange Gents Smart Black Steel Bracelet Watch
This is one of the most popular Emporio Armani watches for men in the market. It is also a great watch to wear if you are the type of man who wants to make a statement. As the name of this elegant timepiece suggests, every part of the Armani Exchange Gents Smart Black Steel Bracelet Watch is black. From the watch dial to the bracelet to the hands and even the watch crown, this watch is all-black. But other than its color and minimalistic design, other notable features of this watch include the date window located on the three o’clock side of the watch as well as the words “Armani Exchange” engraved on the nine o’clock side of the timepiece.
Another thing that you will notice is the well-known Armani Exchange insignia written on the 12’o clock marker of the watch’s dial. Finally, it also gives an oversized feel, thanks in part to its 47 mm watch case. It runs using Japanese quartz movement and has a water resistance of 50 meters. With such low water resistance, the Armani Exchange Gents Smart Black Steel Bracelet Watch is not something that you can wear on the beach. But this is the timepiece to wear on more formal occasions. This is also the best watch to pair with your suit and tie or with your tuxedo.
AR1452 Gents Armani Black Ceramic Watch
Ceramic watches have certain robustness that you will not see in watches made from other materials, such as gold or stainless steel. They are also water and scratch-resistant, lightweight, and hypoallergenic. So if you are looking for something different, then you may get the AR1452 Gents Armani Black Ceramic Watch. Like the previous watch, black dominates every aspect of this timepiece, from the dial to the two-tone bracelet of the watch that truly stands out. Along with the silver-colored watch hands and markers of the watch, there is a date window between the four and five o’clock markers of the watch and the Emporio Armani logo on the watch’s twelve o’clock marker.
But compared to the previous watch, the AR1452 Gents Armani Black Ceramic Watch has a smaller 43 mm watch case. This may still seem oversized for some people but feels just right for others, especially men. It also features a design common in most Emporio Armani watches except for one thing. This watch has a chronograph function, which is evident through the two pushers on the right side of the watch case as well as three sub-dials of this minimalistic timepiece. The AR1452 Gents Armani Black Ceramic Watch is not as explosive as other watches in terms of design. But it surely does pack some style and elegance. This is a lightweight, stylish, and durable watch that you can wear on several occasions and you can also rely on its precision since it uses a chronograph quartz movement.
Emporio Armani Men’s Watch AR2453 Chronograph
Most people consider Emporio Armani watches as fashion watches. And while they are indeed timepieces that you can wear when you want to flaunt your style, this brand also makes chronographs that have that masculine, gunmetal look. And the Emporio Armani Men’s Watch AR2453 Chronograph is no exception. Just like the previous Armani chronograph, it also has three sub-dials that tell the time, a date window between the four and five o’clock markers, the eminent Armani logo on the twelve o’clock marker, sword-like watch hands, and a chronograph function running on quartz movement.
But while the AR1452 Gents Armani Black Ceramic Watch has a noteworthy and subtle two-tone watch bracelet, the Emporio Armani Men’s Watch AR2453 Chronograph has a single-tone, black watch strap that gives this watch its bold and clean look. This watch is the best way to tell that chronographs do not always have to look rugged and sporty. Sometimes, they can look sleek and sexy too,
Conclusion
Emporio Armani watches may not get the same notoriety as Swiss-made watches. After all, watches from companies like Rolex and Omega are known for looking and being expensive while serving multiple functions. But if you are looking for a well-designed, elegant men’s dress watch that you can wear while attending a business meeting or an important gathering, then Emporio Armani’s got you covered. Armani watches are simple and minimalistic yet beautiful and good-quality.
