Black has been the favourite colour of everyone from Johnny Cash to Jay-Z. The all black everything is a fashion credo that never lets you go wrong. Black is formal, black is rock ‘n’ roll; black is dressy and black is casual. Black makes you instantly look more put together.

Black is evergreen. No black is too old to command attention without breaking its restrained barrier. There’s nothing about it that goes over the top; it’s understated but then again, always respected. Black delivers less flash; it’s stealth, precise and versatile in the realm of men’s fashion.

Black, in the world of watches, is a longstanding trend. The black-on-black trend; however, came later and has been hot amidst closed circuits. It's no more a new look - by any means – but rather, the norm when exclusive dressing is the code. Black has shown a tremendous staying power in the watch-domain; even what some might call the murdered-out style (black face/black strap timepieces), helps channelling the inner menace where lots of action is going on.

But blacked-out watches also cost more. At least they used to, before the Michael Kors Blacked Out Runway Chronograph MK8157 Mens Watch showed up. It freed the all-black watch from the limits of hard stunts to keep up with its presence.

The Michael Kors Baguette MK8157 Mens Watch is a modern creation, decked out in ionic-plated stainless steel. From its case to its linked bracelet and to the three-eye chronograph layout, there are shiny numerics and symbolic markers while central, almost-circular structure holding the date window adds a subtle sense of depth to the blacked-out dial. It turns things sleeker and delivers the goods in top form. Ion-plated black is flawless, it is something to behold.

The Michael Kors Audrina MK8157 Mens Watch is all about getting predatory at the midnight party or on the dance floor. The Runway collection of Michael Kors’ brings you the perfect piece to add a touch of boldness to every occasion. The Michael Kors Blacked Out Runway Chronograph MK8157 Mens Watch is also for the times when you are out on a Saturday stroll or deeply engrossed in a Monday meeting. Its design and its just-right case silhouette complement whatever situation or wrist. It lets you step out in style, with a masculine profile and runs on a highly precise quartz movement. There are chronograph sub-dials showing minutes and hour-totals while a separate sub-dial is there to count the normal seconds. The mineral crystal is hard and scratchproof while the ion-plated bezel and body is tough to scratch.

In short, the Michael Kors Layton MK8157 Mens Watch is the watch to get you started for the day and stays with you till you call it a day.
