Stepping up in the same colour and case shape

Price range £219 to £479 across 30 Philipp Plein watches in stock.

A 44mm round case in black IP stainless steel houses a black dial with luminous hands and markers, all protected by hardened mineral crystal. The fixed bezel carries a skull engraving, a recurring motif in this collection. At 14mm thick with a 22mm lug width, the watch has a substantial presence on the wrist. A black silicone strap with pin buckle keeps things straightforward. The Seiko Y121F4 quartz movement runs beneath a screwed caseback, and water resistance sits at 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 explained

Will 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 compared

Does 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 compared

Is it a men's or women's watch?

Listed as men's.
