Is the MK8725 a good everyday watch?

Yes, if you want a dressy quartz chronograph. The steel bracelet and black dial work with office and casual outfits. It is not built for swimming or heavy outdoor use.

How does it compare with a Seiko or Citizen chronograph?

Those brands offer solar or automatic movements and higher water resistance for similar money. The Bayville competes on style and the Michael Kors name, not on movement or specs.

What size is the case?

The case is 44mm across, which is on the large side. It suits medium to large wrists best; slim wrists may find it top-heavy.

Does it need a battery?

Yes. It runs on a quartz movement powered by a battery, so it needs a battery change every few years. There is no winding or automatic rotor.

It has only modest water resistance, typical of fashion chronographs. Do not swim or shower with it; keep it away from water beyond splashes.

The watch on its stainless steel bracelet, typically with a Michael Kors presentation box and paperwork. Check the listing for the exact included items.

Our take on the Michael Kors MK8725 Men's Watch

The Michael Kors Bayville MK8725 is a 44mm stainless steel chronograph with a black dial and quartz movement. It is a fashion-first watch: the Bayville line is built for looks, with a bold case and a busy three-subdial face. Against sport chronographs from Seiko or Citizen it gives up solar or automatic movements and deep water resistance, but it delivers the oversized, polished look Michael Kors is known for. It suits buyers who want a dressy statement watch for work and evenings rather than a tool watch.
