Emporio Armani Men's Chronograph Watch, Ceramic Watch with a 43mm case size

Bought as present for my son who loves it.

While there's no denying that this watch looks good, I feel that the price is heavily inflated based on the brand name. Great for those who need a designer brand to feel special, but in a world where smartwatches exist, I think I'd rather spend my money elsewhere. As far as the watch itself goes, it tells the time accurately and feels comfortable on the wrist (although a little on the heavy side). There are multiple smaller dials for stopwatch functions, but although the numbers on these are in white, the actual hands are black, which on a black background makes them almost impossible to make out. Overall, a nice-looking watch with basic functionality, but not without its issues and overpriced for what it is.

INTRO: All I can say is Wow – what an amazing watch this is ! I chose this watch for my partner, and I can certainly say I am top of the list where Brownie points are concerned ! My partner has always admired designer timepieces, but has never been fortunate enough to own one until now. WATCH DESCRIPTION: The watch features a 43.5 mm ceramic case. It has a Quartz movement, and a chronograph analogue display. It features a degradè sunray dial from black to grey with cd finishings on sub-counters, a chronograph movement and black ceramic bracelet (it is also available with a blue or green bracelet). The Armani branding is seen throughout, on the watch face, on the bracelet and on the back of the watch. The watch arrives in a black cardboard box, inside which is a branded Emporio Armani black square giftbox. The watch is attached to a velvet holder. Inside the box, there is a booklet, and a Certificate of Authenticity. The back of the watch has an engraved serial number. To guarantee authenticity, the watch has a small tag featuring a QR code. You need to scan the QR code which then takes you to the Certilogo website. This then asks you to scan the serial number on the back of the watch, and also upload a photo. Following this you enter your details, and a passcode will be sent, which you enter into the Certilogo website. The website then confirms whether your watch is authentic. I can confirm the watch I received is guaranteed as being authentic. CONCLUSION: This is a very striking men’s watch. My partner is over the moon with it, and says it feels comfortable on the wrist. It is fairly large and is quite weighty giving it a substantial feel. The black shiny ceramic bracelet looks very classy. The watch is described as being water resistant to 100M, but I doubt my partner will be putting that to the test. He says he will just wear it for special occasions, but I think it should be enjoyed every day. In the time he’s worn it, he must have looked at it approximately every 10 seconds ! I don’t think he really believes it's actually his ! Many of us now wear smartwatches, which certainly have their place, but nothing compares to the sophisticated elegance of a wristwatch. The photos on the product information page really do not do this watch justice as it looks so much better in real life. I have added my own photos and video to help show it off, but you really need to see it in real life. Currently priced at almost £500, this is a considered purchase, but for a quality luxury branded timepiece it is an investment, and would also make a fabulous gift for a special person or occasion. There is nothing not to like about this beautiful watch, and I would like to thank Amazon and Emporio Armani for allowing me to review this fabulous timepiece.

This is absolutely gorgeous and my partner and I were both blown away with how nice it was when it arrived. It comes in a gift box with authentication certificate and a code to scan on a label attached to the watch itself. The whole thing is very premium and would be a super luxe gift - it's very nicely presented for gifting. The watch itself is heavy and feels very substantial, but comfortable to wear. The black colour is gorgeous - it has a bit of shine without being glossy, but is stylish and very much my partner's taste in terms of finish. It is scratch resistant and waterproof, but feels so luxurious, he's cautious not to be too casual with it - I'm sure it'll stand up to daily wear, but at nearly £500, I think most people would treat it with exceptional care. It came a little oversized for my partner, so it needs a link or two taking out to fit him perfectly, although out the box is a reasonable fit for him - removing a link from the strap will make it that bit secure personally. Overall, it's an absolutely stunning watch and if you have the money for an ultra luxurious treat or gift, it's a beautiful piece.

Beautiful black and stylish mens Armani watch, it's very good quality and stylish as well it's fairly big watch face and the strap is a little bit bigger than my partners wrist but that can be easily solved. Overall lovely watch works well and looks great comes well presented and has a small book with information in and would make a wonderful gift.

Beautiful watch, simple but elegant. It comes in a giftable box and looks stunning. It’s really well made so I’m sure it will last for a very very long time. It is a bit heavier than other watches but it’s totally worth it. Really elevates a look. My husband is getting spoiled this Christmas.
