FAQs

Is this watch truly suitable for diving?

Yes, the Emporio Armani Sea Explorer AR60083 is an ISO 6425 Certified Diver's watch with 20 ATM (200 meters) water resistance, making it suitable for recreational diving, snorkeling, and serious swimming. Always ensure the screw-down crown is fully secured before entering water.

Does the automatic movement require a battery?

No, this watch features an automatic movement that is powered by the natural motion of your wrist. It does not require a battery. If not worn regularly, it may stop and will need to be manually wound or worn again to restart.

How scratch-resistant is the crystal?

The watch uses mineral crystal glass, which is durable and protects against everyday bumps and scratches. While strong, it is not as scratch-resistant as sapphire crystal and care should be taken to avoid abrasive surfaces.

How do I clean the stainless steel bracelet?

For routine cleaning, wipe the bracelet with a soft, damp cloth. For more thorough cleaning, you can use a soft brush with a small amount of mild soap and water, ensuring to rinse it completely with fresh water and dry it thoroughly afterward.

Can I wear this watch in the shower?

While the watch has a high water resistance rating, it's generally not recommended to wear it in the shower. Hot water, steam, and soaps can degrade the seals over time, potentially compromising water resistance. Always ensure the crown is screwed down before any water contact.

What is the warranty period?

> Info needed: [Please refer to your purchase documentation or contact the retailer/manufacturer for specific warranty details.]

Is the dial truly yellow for visibility?

Yes, the watch features a striking light yellow dial with Super-LumiNova® applied to the hands, indexes, and bezel markings, specifically designed to offer optimal visibility in dark and underwater conditions.

What is the benefit of a screw-down crown?

A screw-down crown provides a more secure seal, significantly enhancing the watch's water resistance. When fully screwed in, it helps prevent water and dust from entering the watch movement.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped or is losing time.

As an automatic watch, it needs motion to operate. Wear the watch regularly for at least 8-10 hours a day. If it has stopped, manually wind it by turning the crown clockwise approximately 20-30 times while it is fully pushed in. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in and screwed down.

Date is not changing correctly.

Adjust the date when the hour hand is not between 9 PM and 3 AM to avoid damaging the movement. Pull the crown out to the first position and rotate it to advance the date. If the date changes at noon, you need to advance the time by 12 hours.

Moisture or condensation under the crystal.

This indicates a potential breach in water resistance. Ensure the screw-down crown was fully secured before water exposure. Take the watch to a professional watchmaker immediately for inspection and repair to prevent damage to the movement.

Bracelet feels too tight or too loose.

The stainless steel bracelet can be adjusted by adding or removing links. This typically requires specialized tools and is best performed by a jeweler or watch specialist to ensure a secure fit without damaging the bracelet.

Luminosity on the dial is dim.

The Super-LumiNova® needs to be 'charged' by exposure to light (natural or artificial) to glow in the dark. If it appears dim, expose the watch to a bright light source for a few minutes before entering a dark environment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reliable automatic movement, no battery changes needed
  • High water resistance (200m) with ISO 6425 certification for diving
  • Exceptional low-light visibility with Super-LumiNova®
  • Durable stainless steel construction and secure butterfly clasp
  • Stylish and versatile design suitable for various occasions

Cons

  • Automatic movement requires regular wear or manual winding to maintain power reserve
  • Mineral crystal glass is less scratch-resistant compared to sapphire crystal
  • 42.5mm case size might be considered large for smaller wrists
  • Potentially heavier than watches with alternative materials due to stainless steel construction

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

  1. Unboxing: Carefully remove the watch from its Emporio Armani packaging.
  2. Setting Time and Date:
  • Unscrew the crown (turn counter-clockwise) to release it from its locked position.
  • Pull the crown out to the first position to adjust the date. Turn it to advance the date until the correct date is displayed. Avoid adjusting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM to prevent damage to the movement.
  • Pull the crown out to the second position to adjust the time. Turn it to set the hour and minute hands. For precise time, align with a reliable time source.
  • Push the crown back in fully and screw it down securely (turn clockwise) to ensure water resistance.
  1. Winding (if not worn immediately): If the watch has stopped, gently turn the crown clockwise about 20-30 times while it's pushed in and screwed down (if it's a winding position) to build up a power reserve. Then set the time and wear it.

Compatibility

The Emporio Armani Sea Explorer AR60083 is designed for men and is a standalone timepiece. Its classic styling and stainless steel finish make it compatible with a wide range of attire, from casual to formal.

Care and Maintenance

  • Cleaning: Wipe the stainless steel case and bracelet regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, sweat, and oils. For stubborn grime on the bracelet, a soft brush with mild soap and water can be used, ensuring to rinse thoroughly with fresh water and dry completely.
  • Water Exposure: While highly water-resistant (200m), always ensure the screw-down crown is fully secured before any water exposure. Rinse the watch with fresh water after swimming in saltwater or chlorinated pools to prevent corrosion.
  • Automatic Movement Care: To keep the automatic movement running accurately, wear the watch regularly. If not worn for several days, it may stop. Manual winding will restart it, or simply wearing it for a few hours will wind it sufficiently.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the watch in its original packaging or a watch box, away from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong magnetic fields, and harsh chemicals.
  • Crystal Protection: The mineral crystal glass is durable but can still scratch. Avoid direct impacts or contact with abrasive surfaces.
  • Professional Servicing: It is recommended to have your automatic watch serviced by a qualified watchmaker every 3-5 years to ensure optimal performance and maintain water resistance.
