Uniting sustainable light-harvesting solar innovation with classic maritime expedition styling and refined two-tone Italian tailoring, the Emporio Armani World Explorer 42mm AR11738 delivers a distinguished, dynamic statement for the modern man. Sculpted in a balanced 42.00 mm surgical-grade 316L stainless steel case measuring a streamlined 11.00 mm in thickness with a 22 mm lug width, this sports timepiece pairs vertical satin-brushed steel flanks with warm yellow gold-tone ion-plated (PVD) accents, protective crown shoulders, and a rotating diver-style timing bezel calibrated with a 60-minute scale. The dial showcases a radiant sunray navy blue finish engineered with light-permeable solar cells that continuously convert natural sunlight and ambient indoor lighting into electrical energy, eliminating regular battery changes and providing up to 4 months of autonomous runtime on a full charge. Accented by applied gold-toned faceted baton hour markers, bold sword hands coated with high-performance luminescence, an integrated date aperture, and the iconic Emporio Armani eagle emblem at 12 o'clock beneath a scratch-resistant protective crystal, it is driven by a precision Japanese Miyota Calibre 2070 solar-quartz movement. Mounted on an articulated two-tone stainless steel three-link bracelet secured by a double push-button deployant clasp and pressure-tested for 100 metres (10 bar / 10 ATM) of water resistance, it is protected by an official 2-year international manufacturer warranty.
