The Traguardo Chronograph is Maserati's attempt to carry the visual language of the Fuoriserie Unica Collection — the brand's bespoke coachbuilding programme — onto the wrist. The monochrome black PVD case and bracelet form the base, then aqua hands, indices and bezel markings cut through in exactly the accent colour that runs through those custom interiors. The connection is decorative rather than mechanical, but it is coherent. At 45mm and 190 grams, this wears with real authority — the bracelet alone has enough heft to make itself felt through the day, and it suits wrists that can carry the width. The Miyota JS50 is a well-proven Japanese quartz chronograph calibre: accurate, unfussy, and entirely in keeping with a watch whose ambitions are visual rather than horological.

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.
