Stepping up in the same colour and case shape
The Successo line takes its design cues directly from Maserati's sports car radiator grilles, and that heritage shows clearly on the dial: a deep blue sunray surface textured with grid-like graphics, three sub-dials, and rose gold-tone accents that echo the brand's two-tone livery. The Trident logo sits at twelve o'clock where a tachymeter might otherwise be, which tells you exactly what kind of watch Maserati intends this to be. At 44mm it is a large case, but 11.2mm of depth keeps it from stacking under a cuff — genuinely flat for a chronograph at this scale, and more comfortable through a long day than the diameter alone would suggest. The Seiko VD53 movement inside is a sensible choice: a calibre built for accuracy and low maintenance that will run reliably for years without attention.

Learn more about Maserati
The Maserati brothers founded their workshop in Bologna in 1914 and built racing cars that won the Targa Florio and the Indianapolis 500. The trident emblem comes from the Fountain of Neptune in Bologna.
The watches are a licensed line produced by Morellato Group in Italy, not by the carmaker. They draw openly on automotive design: tachymeter bezels, perforated leather straps recalling racing gloves, dashboard-style dials, and case shapes referencing grilles and instrument binnacles.
Movements are quartz and bought-in automatic. The appeal is the association and the styling rather than the mechanics.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
Will the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Does it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
