A 44mm round stainless steel case with a silver finish and a fixed bezel engraved with the brand's skull motif. The black dial carries luminous hands and markers, with a mineral crystal overhead. At 14.4mm thick with a 22mm lug width, the case sits with some presence on the wrist. A Y121F4 Japanese quartz movement drives hours, minutes, and seconds. The black silicone strap fastens with a pin buckle, and the watch is water resistant to 50 metres.

Learn more about Philipp Plein
Philipp Plein founded his label in Munich in 1998, initially designing furniture before moving into fashion. The brand built itself on deliberate excess and has been divisive throughout.
The watches follow suit: heavy gold and black PVD plating, skull motifs, dense crystal setting, and large cases. Movements are quartz. There is no attempt at horological restraint and none is intended.
The brand knows precisely what it is doing and does it without apology, which at least makes it coherent.

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 comparedIs it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
Cheapest place to buy
Watch Enclave is the only UK retailer we track stocking this reference, so there is nothing to compare it against today.
