Maserati R8871624011 Sorpasso Chronograph Black Leather Strap Watch - W81327
Ref. R8871624011
Sits in Maserati’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Maserati watches we list, which start at £104.
Price range £104 to £419 across 82 Maserati watches in stock.The Sorpasso takes its name from the Italian term for overtaking — the decisive moment a racing driver commits to a pass — and the design reflects that intent without being subtle about it. The fixed tachymeter bezel and sunray brown dial are directly drawn from motorsport instrumentation, translated into a wrist-worn form by Morellato Group under licence from the Maserati marque. At 42mm the case sits with some presence, and the rose gold PVD finish pulls the brown dial warmer than a steel case would, giving the chronograph subdials a coherence that a cooler metal tone might not. The perforated black leather strap reinforces the track-day reference and, at 80 grams, the whole assembly wears with enough substance to feel considered without becoming heavy through the day.

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