The Successo line is Maserati's attempt to carry the brand's automotive character directly onto the wrist — not as a licensed afterthought but as something that reads like a cockpit instrument, with the Trident sitting at twelve and a sunray blue dial that shifts between deep navy and something close to electric under raking light. Gold-tone hands and applied indices hold enough contrast against that blue to be read quickly, which is the point of a chronograph face. At 44mm across and just 11.2mm deep, it carries its size without bulk — flat enough that it does not fight a shirt cuff, and at 150 grams on the bracelet, present on the wrist without being tiresome over a long day. The Seiko VD53 movement underneath is a Japanese-made calibre chosen for this kind of watch because it keeps time accurately, runs the chronograph cleanly, and does not require the owner to think about it.

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.
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?
20mm. 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.
Cheapest place to buy
F.Hinds is the only UK retailer we track stocking this reference, so there is nothing to compare it against today.
Has the price changed recently?
It's currently at its highest recorded price. It's ranged between £175 and £179, today it's £179.
