Stepping up in Philipp Plein's range

Price range £197 to £479 across 24 Philipp Plein watches in stock.

At 44mm across and 15mm thick, this is a broad, substantial watch with a round case in two-tone gold and silver stainless steel. The blue dial is paired with a unidirectional rotating tachymeter bezel in the same colour, and the hands and markers carry luminous treatment for low-light legibility. A hardened mineral crystal sits over the dial, and the screwed caseback adds to a 100m water resistance rating. The matching two-tone bracelet fastens with a butterfly deployant clasp and contributes to an overall weight of 210g on the wrist. Power comes from a Seiko Y121 quartz movement.

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?

Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.

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.
