Stepping up in the same colour and case shape

Price range £109 to £429 across 115 Maserati watches in stock.

Traguardo — the Italian for finish line — puts the name's motorsport intent directly onto the dial, where the sub-dial layout reads like an instrument cluster lifted from a cockpit. Against the sunburst black background, rose-gold hands, indices and bezel trim provide the contrast that makes the whole thing legible at a glance. At 45mm it makes no attempt at subtlety, but 12mm of thickness keeps it from stacking up on the wrist the way a lot of oversized chronographs do — it sits flatter than the diameter suggests. The push-button deployment clasp on the bracelet is adjusted by removing pin-secured links, which is more reliable day to day than the spring-bar systems common at this kind of size.

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.

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

What size strap does it take?

22mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.

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

Listed as men's.
