Michael Kors Mini Slim Runway MK3514

Review

You are looking at a simple yet sophisticatedly made watch. Michael Kors Watches Mini Slim Runway offers nothing but one button with slashes in the place of numerals, no extra features except basic functions for a time-teller. Especially, if you buy the silver-colour watch, you will get extra golden-coated bezel, numerals and hands. The silver-tone watch is suitable for almost all kinds of clothes, from modest to the most fashionable ones.

The downside of this watch model is due to its size. As you can see, the case size of 33 mm is not the best choice for those who have big wrist. If you fall into this category, you should stick with case size of 37mm. What’s more, the triple row band, which is quite simple and lacks acme, could be a drawback for this item.

Review

If you think only big-face watches could make you look elegant and stylish, Michael Kors Watches Portia will make you reconsider. This gorgeous and delicate watch will undoubtedly constitute a great gift for your wife or girlfriend. The numerals and hands are intendedly minimized to the most uncomplicated design.

Michael Kors Darci Pavé Rose Gold-Tone Watch

Review

A little glam, a little girl next door, the Darci watch stands out without going over the top. It is a stunning watch, and the quality is beyond compare. A pavé-embellished bezel lends this timepiece a touch of shimmer, while the radiant rose-tone bracelet strap makes it exceptionally elegant.

The size of the watch face is perfect. It looks fantastic on small wrists. Since the face is moderately big, it keeps the watch from rotating around the wrist and ending up sitting backward.

The links are small, and the flat case makes it sit on your wrist nicely. Compared to this watch, other bulky watches look too clumsy.

It looks great with a white tee, blazer, skinny jeans, and pumps.

Three words for the Michael Kors Dylan watch Big, bold, and impossibly cool. The design of this watch will never go out of style. The watch features a navy chronograph dial with rose-gold-tone luminous markers, numerals, three hands, three sub dials, and a date window.

Michael Kors Women’s Runway Gold-Tone Watch MK5473

Review

This stunning Michael Kors timepiece is a powerful statement made by this very successful designer.  The case is oversized and superbly crafted from a brush and polished yellow gold ion-plated stainless steel.

For those not familiar with ion plating, it’s a process where the two metals are bonded together at a molecular level. It helps the watch maintain its original color and also strengthens the steel.

The central crown is moderately prominent with fine ridges and easy adjustment for the time.

The classic three-link bracelet is also made from yellow gold ion-plated stainless steel, which ends in a secure fold-over clasp with a push-button release.

This Michael Kors fashion watch is water-resistant up to 100 meters making this piece perfect for daily wear and the occasional dip in the pool.

Michael Kors is written along the flange at the sixth position. Although there are no hour markers on this model, reading the time on the beige dial is very easy.

There is a large M K monogram in unique yellow-tinted gunmetal on the dial and relief.

It is a must-have Michael Kors watch for all modern-day fashionistas. It’s a timepiece that will work with just about any outfit.

Hybrid Smart Watch

Michael Kors Access Slim Runway MKT4005

Review

The design might not be the highlight of this model. The three buttons on edge might make the watch a little bit bulky for women. However, you might have to appreciate the second dial in the watch face which is made for second time zone tracking, notifications and alarms. This is an indication that this watch is neither a casual-wear watch nor a smartwatch. In fact, it enables users to enjoy the best of both worlds.

This hybrid model offers a stunning level of water resistance compared to smartwatches, which is over 160 ft. So if you accidentally wear it during a shower, it will be fine. The bright side of this model is quite astonishing. This watch allows you to track your activity, deliver your smartphone notifications, even take photos and store music via your phones. You can easily navigate these functions through the 3-functional buttons. All in all, this watch is quite a good investment since it displays several necessary “smart” functions with modern design

Michael Kors Access Bradshaw MKT5012

Review

The Bradshaw Access mostly aims at women with style and unisex look. The design doesn’t go too far from the classic MK watch whose elegant bezel and shiny stainless steel stand out. This version offers IP67 water resistance and can also prevent dust from covering your watch. As for the size, the 45mm Bradshaw is the most exceptional in its kind, even compared to the Oversized Bradshaw, which is only 43 mm in dimension. At this moment, it all comes down to personal preferences to find this model agreeable to your wrist, or it is way too big.

If there is anything more to praise about this specific Bradshaw Access, it is the highly customized feature. Basically, you can set everything based on your preference such as the dial color to hand color. The Access app provides a wide range of apps which could help you do things like robotically switching from day and night.

The Android Wear feature enables you to access both Android and iOS phones. That means any notifications from your phones could be instantly transmitted to your watches such as messages, calls, and emails. What I don’t like about this model is also from its “smart” features. There are many limitations from Android Wear that sometimes iOS users would prefer not to connect their phones to the watch at all. The app list still needs a serious upgrade. However, all in all, this is a modish watch for women with enough necessary smart features. Plus, the price is brilliant.

Michael Kors Sofie Access MKT5022

Review

First thing first, the Sofie is a smartwatch. Therefore, you would be more beneficial from its unique features than just for time-checking or fashion purpose. This Android smartwatch offers 512MB of Ram with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Wear 2100 operator. Furthermore, you now have extra 4GB storage so you can stuff inside some music files and stream them via Bluetooth. Sounds great, doesn’t it?

Unlike the Bradshaw Access which aims at unisex style, the newest Sofie’s design offers a more elegant look. The flashy aesthetic gemstones certainly do the trick. For those who are not appealed by the pave look, you can easily trade it off with a leather band. Another plus for this model is its lightweight capacity. The watch nests stylishly around your wrist. The only disadvantage in terms of design is the fact that it single button which limits you from operating the interface like its counterpart for men.

This model features Android Wear 2.0, which enables users to access their Android and iOS phones to alert calls, messages and many more. However, iOS phone users may not find Android Wear compatible with their system, giving users limited app choices and features. This, however, doesn’t stop the Sofie become the most favorite item for many women who pursuit sophistication and modernity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Michael Kors smart watch waterproof?

All Michael Kors watches in this list are water/dustproof. As you can see the level of water resistance depends on different models. For example, Michael Kors Access Sofie  MKT5022 and Michael Kors Access Unisex Bradshaw both adopt IP67 as their water-resistance standard. IP67 is a standardized rating provided by International Electrotechnical Commission. 6 means that this product is highly resistant to harmful dust. S7 means this product is protected under the water with a depth of no more than 3.3 feet. Therefore, if you buy smartwatches from Michael Kors, it is advisable to keep them away from water.

Other quartz analogue watches offer a higher level of water resistance. Michael Kors Women’s Parker Rose Gold-Tone Watch MK5774, for example, can endure a large amount of water pressure up to 330 ft. This means you can go swimming or snorkeling with the watch. Most of the watches will offer a level of water resistance up to 165 ft, which is only suitable for occasional swimming and bathing. However, it’s best not to be exposed too frequent to water.

How do I set the date & time on my Michael Kors watch?

This may sound weird, but many people struggle with setting the date and time on their Michael Kors watch. In this section, you will find useful instruction on how to set the date and time for analogue watches.

To set the time, you first need to yank the button or the crown. There are two positions: number 1 is the closest position to the case, and number 2 is the furthest. Pull it until you reach the number 2 position. Now, turn the button to set your time. Finally, gently bring it back to the number 1 position.

Other watch models can support both date and time setting. With these types of watches, there are three positions: number 1 is the closest position to the case, number 2 is the position for date setting, and number 3 is the position for time setting. If you want to set date, yank the button until it reaches number 2 position. Turn the button to set the proper date. How to turn the button depends largely on the watch model. Next, pull it further to the number 3 position to set the time. Finally, put the button back to the first position.

How do I reset my Michael Kors access watch?

Many things could happen with your Michael Kors access. Sometimes the only option left is to bring it back to its initial stage, which is the factory settings. When you reset your Michael Kors access watch, bear in mind that all your data in your watch will be deleted and unable to be restored. Any data is counted for that matter, such as notifications, apps, system settings, activity tracking data, music, files and many more. The good news is this setting will not affect your Google account, which means any confidential data you keep there will be safe.

Resetting Michael Kors requires more than a power button like your smartphone. You need to follow this instruction carefully

• Touch the middle pusher button and hold it for a while until your display lights up.
• You need to enter the app menu to change the setting, therefore press the middle pusher button again
• Scroll down the list of option and choose Settings
• Choose the option named System
• Choose the option named Disconnect and Reset
• You need to confirm this step so the watch can reset itself.
• Pair your watch with your phone again after the resetting is finished.

Verdict

After reading through my list, you might have a glimpse of why I fancy Michael Kors watches. They have so many things to offer, from small-face watches with classy design to the hybrid watch which features functions of both types of watches, and most importantly the smartwatches which are specifically designed for women.

I hope that you would find a lot of useful information about Michael Kors watches in general as well as specific models.
