The Stile collection takes Maserati's motorsport branding into fashion-sport territory, and this model makes that alignment fairly literal: the octagonal architectural lines on the bezel borrow the visual language of high-end Swiss sports watches, while the dial uses physical cutouts to expose decorative gear work beneath — a device borrowed from open-heart mechanical watches, executed here over a quartz movement. It is a deliberate aesthetic choice rather than a mechanical one, and it reads clearly as such. At 45mm and 170 grams, this wears with considerable physical presence — the kind of watch that announces itself on the wrist rather than sitting quietly under a cuff. The blue dial elements read well against the deep gunmetal PVD finish, the contrast sharper in direct light than in shade. The Miyota JS25 underneath is a competent, battery-driven workhorse: no story to tell about it, but accurate and unfussy in use. Link removal for sizing is old-fashioned but reliable, and the two-button deployant keeps things tidy at the wrist once set.

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?
24mm. 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
