Diesel is a fashion brand that is famous for its jeans and clothes. But you can also find a broad offer of Diesel watches on the counter. The watches are definitely more for the brave and lovers of big pieces. Find some inspiration in today's photo gallery.

By far the most popular is the Diesel Mega Chief series. And the name quite fits the watch. The case diameter doesn't reach under 50 mm, so it is a really proper watch. The water resistance is usually around 100 M, but the main attribute is the specific – of course, only design – glass attachment. It extends from the case and ends above the date indicator. And that's the typical feature of a Diesel watch.

The world-famous Diesel brand was founded in 1978 by Renzo Rossa. So even if we feel the brand is American,it was actually founded in Italy, where the brand still resides.. Rosso was mainly a jeans enthusiast. He started sewing them on his mom's sewing machine when he was 15 years old and when he turned 23, he set a base for his billion-dollar company. Nowadays, he is nicknamed a "jean genius".

The Mega Chief collection has a sporty vibe, so there is a place for a stopwatch and a basic luminescence, which is truly basic as it doesn't have great intensity or endurance.

The distinctive inscription Only The Brave is far from just a decorative element on the watch. In 2002, the founder of Diesel started to buy out other fashion brands and incorporated them under a mother company called Only The Brave. Nowadays, Diesel also falls under it.

The designs are still designed in Italy, but there are flagship stores all over the world. And almost every information article about Diesel mentioned their "surreal advertisement." To be honest, none of these advertisements ever reached my asocial bubble, but when I saw the introduction of the winter 2022 collection, I understood completely what they mean by surreal. Take a look at their Youtube, it's almost like a trailer for the third part of Blade Runner.

Although the watch is not manufactured directly by Diesel, the watch designs are definitely theirs. You can recognize them by their original and generally unmissable appearance. After all, as can be seen across the entire photo gallery.

Have you ever wondered why the brand is called Diesel? Allegedly, the founder saw a parallel in it. In the 1970s, diesel was considered a new alternative fuel with great potential. And Diesel wanted to offer alternative modern jeans. It also had practical reasons. It is easy to pronounce, and the pronunciation  is the same for the whole world.

Throughout the series, you will come across a specifically colored glass. It changes colors at various angles, from, let's say, red to blue-green. What detracts from its readability definitely adds to the attractiveness and design originality.

Those six letters cannot be found only on clothes. Diesel also includes a collection of design accessories, cosmetics, and watches. And those are the ones we are interested in the most today. If you are thinking, how can they produce shower gel and watches in a jeans factory? They don't. They have them manufactured by companies that understand these segments more. In the case of cosmetics, it is L'Oréal, watches are Fossil watches.

Diesel only offers quartz models, so watches powered by a battery. There are no mechanical watches, as they would get picked on by the whole chronomatic world. But Diesel has recently dived into smartwatches (who hasn't, right?), but they did not have a success on our market. So they stuck to classics. More popular are analog watches, but digital ones can also be stylish. Especially in the Diesel Crusher series.

Diesel also often places the crown and buttons at nine o'clock, on the opposite side of the case than we are used to. Many believe that this is a collection for left handed people (and in practice it may work that way). But it's more about design again. This is typical for the Diesel MS9 series.

Fossil was founded in the 1980s and has specialized in watches since the beginning.  In addition, they also added other products under their own name. And they raise the profits with licensed products for other brands. Including Diesel. By the way, the American watch brand Fossil is the reason why we can have watches from Puma, Michael Kors, or Donny Karen NY, for example.

And one more collection there is truly original. The Diesel Mr. Daddy. In addition to the large sizes, they have a lot of "alarm clocks" on the dial. In addition to stopwatch counters, there are other times so the owner can set, for example, multiple time zones. However, you may be a little surprised when replacing the battery – every "dial" is powered by a separate battery. But it looks stylish, doesn't it?

Even though the Diesel watches are not any watch gems – and they are not pretending to be – they still have their place in fashion and they are still popular. But you don't have to question the quality. They use stainless steel for the cases, and mineral glasses and water resistance is always good enough for normal wear. Nevertheless, it is good to remember that this is mainly about style and design, and it is not a watch for the terrain, for diving, or any other extremes…

Simple in design, you could almost say minimalist, is it Diesel at all?

Even these models can be found here, as they are the top from the Diesel Rasp collection. The big 9, pattern on the crown and case, and, of course, the Diesel logo.

The target audience for Diesel watches is similar to that of clothes. Young men who want something modern, expressive, quirky. And often unmissable. But due to the broad representation of big watches, Diesel also speaks to people who want a solid watch. Though there are some women's collections, there are only a few of them. So we can say that Diesel is more of a men's affair.
