Price range £99 to £450 across 28 Aston Martin watches in stock.

The Thrill Chronograph sits within Aston Martin's licensed watch line as the piece that most directly references the motorsport side of the brand rather than its road cars. The navy dial carries racing-numeral typography and three sub-dials arranged to read quickly, which is consistent with the tachymeter bezel — a scale that only makes sense if the watch is meant to feel purposeful rather than decorative. At 42mm on a stainless steel bracelet with a deployant clasp, it wears as a solid sports chronograph: substantial without being unwieldy, and the bracelet weight contributes to a planted feel on the wrist. The case back is screw-down and stamped with the marque's logo, a small detail that suits the brief. The recycled steel casing is worth noting as a production choice, not a compromise — it has no bearing on finish.

Learn more about Aston Martin

Aston Martin has built cars since 1913, when Lionel Martin and Robert Bamford set up in London, and the name has carried a particular kind of British grand touring ever since.

The watches are a licence rather than a workshop. Aston Martin does not make movements or cases; it signed a long-term agreement with Timex Group in 2025, with the first watch and jewellery collections arriving that autumn. Timex holds similar licences for several names sold well above its own price point.

What you are buying is the design language rather than the engineering: chronograph layouts, tachymeter bezels and colours lifted from racing liveries, on quartz movements at a price a long way below the cars. Judged as accessible motorsport-styled watches they do that job well; judged as watchmaking they are a licensed accessory, and worth knowing as such.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch

Can I swim with it?

Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.

Water resistance explained

Will the glass scratch?

It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.

Sapphire, mineral and acrylic compared

Does it need a battery?

Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.

Quartz, automatic and solar compared

Is it a men's or women's watch?

Listed as men's.
