Stepping up in the same colour and case shape
A 45mm stainless steel case with mixed matte and polished surfaces gives the Traguardo a purposeful, sports-oriented look. The black dial carries multiple sub-dials for the chronograph and a 24-hour indicator, with a date window set between four and five o'clock. Luminous hands and hour indices remain legible in low light. A tachymeter scale runs around the outer bezel. The case measures 12 to 13mm thick and sits on a stainless steel link bracelet 22mm wide at the lugs, secured by a push-button deployment clasp. Water resistance stands at 100 metres.

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 explainedWill 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 comparedDoes 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 comparedWhat 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.
