Maserati R8873612043 Traguardo Chronograph Bracelet Watch - W81144

Ref. R8873612043

Among our 76 Maserati watchesThis watch£209
Premium

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 £325 across 76 Maserati watches in stock.

Traguardo means "finish line" in Italian, and the collection draws directly from Maserati's motorsport heritage — the tachymeter bezel is not ornamental here but a deliberate nod to the instruments that have surrounded the marque's drivers for decades. The automotive reference runs to the coined-edge finish on the bezel wall, a texture that reads as purposeful rather than decorative once you know where it comes from. At 45mm the watch makes no attempt at restraint, and the three subdials on the blue dial fill that space without crowding it. The bracelet carries mixed finishing — brushed on the outer links, polished on the inner — which gives it visual depth and means it marks less obviously in daily use. At 12mm the case is not especially intrusive for its footprint, and the deployant clasp sits flush enough for the watch to move cleanly at the wrist rather than drag.

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.

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.
