The ellesse Massimo W03-00860-004 takes the green-dial automatic and runs gold through everything that frames it — the bezel, the crown, the hands and the hour markers — while leaving the case and bracelet in plain steel. It is the same watch as the all-steel Massimo underneath, dressed with warmth where it shows.
That combination does something specific. Gold against green is a richer pairing than gold against black or white, because the two colours sit closer together and reinforce each other rather than fighting. And confining the gold to the bezel and dial furniture rather than plating the whole bracelet keeps it from reading as a gold watch — it reads as a steel watch with gold detailing, which is a considerably easier thing to wear.
The specification is serious. A Miyota 8215 Japanese automatic winds itself from the motion of your wrist, so there is no battery. A coin-edged bezel carries a 60-minute scale, there is a date at 3 o'clock, and the case is rated to 10 ATM — 100 metres, which genuinely covers swimming. 40.5mm across, 11.85mm deep, on a three-link 316L stainless steel bracelet.

Why You'll Love It
- Gold on the bezel and dial furniture only, with the bracelet left in steel. You get the warmth without the watch announcing itself as a gold watch — a far easier thing to wear every day.
- Gold against green is a richer pairing than gold against black or white. The two tones sit close enough to reinforce each other rather than compete.
- No battery, ever. The Miyota 8215 winds itself from the movement of your wrist, so there is nothing to replace and no morning where the watch has simply stopped.
- 10 ATM covers swimming. Very few automatics at this price are genuinely rated to 100 metres.
- The coin-edged bezel and 60-minute scale give the watch a proper dive-watch outline rather than a dress-watch one, which is what makes the gold work instead of looking formal.
- Applied hour markers catch the light rather than sitting flat on the dial — the detail that most separates a considered watch from a printed one.
- A date at 3 o'clock is the one extra indication most people actually use.
- 40.5mm is a full-size case that reads clearly at a glance without tipping into oversized.
- A 20mm lug width is the most widely available strap size in watchmaking. Brown leather picks up the gold particularly well.
- Two years of warranty on every purchase from City Chain Singapore.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between this and the other green Massimo?
The metal on the bezel and dial. This reference has a gold-tone bezel, crown, hands and hour markers; the other green Massimo has all of those in steel. Both share the same green dial, the same steel case and bracelet, the same automatic movement and the same price — so the choice is warm detailing or none.
Is this a gold watch?
No, and that is the point. The case and bracelet are steel; only the bezel, crown, hands and markers carry the gold tone. It wears like a steel watch with warm detailing rather than like a gold watch, which makes it far easier to pair with an everyday wardrobe.
What does automatic mean, and how is it different from quartz?
An automatic winds itself. A weighted rotor inside the case turns as your wrist moves, tightening a mainspring that drives the watch — so there is no battery to replace. A quartz watch runs on a cell and keeps slightly better time; an automatic runs on movement and keeps running for decades with servicing.
What happens if I don't wear it for a few days?
It will wind down and stop. That is normal for any automatic and does no harm — put it on, give it a few gentle turns of the wrist, and reset the time and date.
Is an automatic as accurate as a quartz watch?
No, and it is not meant to be. A mechanical movement typically gains or loses a number of seconds a day where a quartz watch is accurate to seconds a month. You are trading a little precision for a movement that runs without a battery and can be serviced indefinitely.
Can I swim with the Massimo?
Yes. At 10 ATM the case is rated to 100 metres, which covers swimming and general water activity. Avoid operating the crown while the watch is wet, rinse it in fresh water after chlorine or seawater, and follow the care guidance in your warranty book.
Will 40.5mm fit my wrist?
40.5mm sits in the standard full-size range and suits most wrists from roughly 16cm to 20cm. At 11.85mm it is deeper than a quartz watch of the same width — that height is the automatic movement inside, and it is what you are paying for.
What is the Miyota 8215?
A Japanese automatic calibre that has been in production for decades and is used across a wide range of watch brands. It is chosen for reliability and serviceability rather than prestige — any competent watchmaker knows it, and parts are widely available. That matters more over ten years than a rarer movement would.
Does it need servicing?
Yes, eventually. A mechanical movement has oiled moving parts that wear, so a service every several years keeps it running accurately. Any City Chain outlet can arrange it.
Will the gold tone wear off?
The gold on the bezel is a surface finish rather than solid metal, so like any coated component it will show wear eventually — most likely on the bezel edge, which is the part that catches doorframes. Because the bracelet and case are plain steel, the parts that see the most contact are not coated at all, which is why this construction holds up better than a fully plated watch.
What warranty does this watch come with?
Two years when purchased from City Chain Singapore, an authorised ellesse retailer. Keep your warranty book and proof of purchase — both are needed when submitting the watch for service at any City Chain outlet.
Can I fit a different strap?
Easily. The lugs take a 20mm strap, the most common width in watchmaking. Brown leather picks up the gold on the bezel particularly well, and a rubber strap suits the 100-metre rating. Any City Chain store can fit one for you.
Who is ellesse?
ellesse is an Italian brand founded in Perugia in 1959 by Leonardo Servadio, the name taken from his initials. It began in skiwear and expanded through tennis and lifestyle over the following decades. City Chain holds the licence to design and sell watches under the ellesse name.
