Maserati Men’s 42mm Stainless Steel Watch (R8853118022)

The Maserati R8853118022 puts generously sized presence on the wrist, built around a stainless steel case and a black dial. It measures 42 mm across and 9 mm deep. Case and Wrist Presence \n The case measures 42 mm in diameter and 9 mm deep, worked in stainless steel. The surface treatment is polished. At 42 mm it lands in the range most men’s wrists take comfortably, and it will sit under a cuff. \n Reading the Dial \n The face is finished in black. \n Movement and Functions \n A quartz movement drives the watch. That means accuracy which needs no daily attention, no winding routine, and no rate drift to correct. \n \n Date display – the current date at a glance \n Water resistance – 10 ATM (100 metres) \n Mineral crystal – protecting the dial \n \n Strap, Clasp and Fit \n The bracelet is stainless steel. Links can be removed by any competent jeweller or watchmaker for a precise fit. \n Water Resistance and Everyday Durability \n The watch is rated to 10 ATM, or 100 metres of static pressure. In practical terms that covers rain, hand washing, showering and recreational swimming. It is not a dive watch, so leave it behind for scuba diving and keep it away from high-pressure water jets. Make sure the crown is fully seated before any contact with water. \n A mineral crystal protects the dial – harder than acrylic and more shatter-resistant than sapphire, which is a sensible trade-off on a case this size. \n Who This Watch Suits \n \n An everyday wrist size that still reads as a proper men’s watch \n Building a black-led accessory wardrobe \n Daily wear that includes rain, washing up and the occasional swim \n Gift buyers looking for something recognisable, boxed and properly warranted \n \n Styling Notes \n Black is the easiest colour to place. It disappears into formal dressing and sharpens casual dressing, and it never fights whatever else you are wearing. \n Care and Maintenance \n A watch at this level rewards very little maintenance, but the little it asks for makes the difference between one that still looks sharp in five years and one that does not. Have the battery replaced by a watchmaker rather than a kiosk – a proper service reseats the case gasket at the same time, which is what actually preserves the water rating. A flat battery left in the case is the single most common cause of avoidable movement damage. Rinse the case in fresh water after a swim, especially in the sea, and dry it before it goes back on. \n A bracelet collects more than people expect. A soft toothbrush, warm water and a drop of dish soap along the links once a season keeps it looking new. Keep it clear of perfume and solvents, off the speaker on your desk, and out of direct sun when you take it off. \n About the Brand and Ownership \n Maserati watches sit in the sweet spot between fashion and function: recognisable design, real build quality, and a price that does not ask you to think of the watch as an investment. Quartz keeps the running costs near zero – a battery every few years and the occasional seal check is the whole of the maintenance schedule. Kept out of direct heat, away from magnets and wiped down after a sweaty day, a watch like this will outlast several phones. \n The Short Version \n What you are getting is an everyday size that still has presence, a bracelet that gives it weight on the wrist. It is not trying to be a heirloom piece and it does not price itself like one. It is a well-made, recognisable watch that does the job every day and looks considered doing it. \n Technical Specifications \n \n Attribute Specification \n Brand Maserati \n Model / Reference R8853118022 \n Gender Men’s (42 mm case) \n EAN 8033288979838 \n Case Diameter 42 mm \n Case Thickness 9 mm \n Case Material Stainless steel \n Case Finish Polished \n Dial Colour Black \n Crystal Mineral \n Movement Quartz \n Strap / Bracelet Stainless steel bracelet \n Water Resistance 10 ATM / 100 metres \n Warranty 24 months \n \n Buying With Confidence \n Buying a watch
