Diesel DZ2239 Stinger Gold Tone Bracelet Watch - W11378
Ref. DZ2239
Sits in Diesel’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Diesel watches we list, which start at £105.
Price range £105 to £489 across 110 Diesel watches in stock.The Stinger is Diesel doing what it has always done best: building something with scale and attitude, where the geometry does the talking. The octagonal case does not sit as a separate piece on a strap — it grows directly out of the integrated bracelet, the angular lines carrying through from case to link without interruption, which is what gives the whole thing its coherence. At 44mm across and 52mm lug to lug it commands the wrist, yet at 10.4mm it lies considerably flatter than most watches built to this brief. The sunray dial shifts from near-flat gold to something warmer and more dimensional as the light moves, and the mix of batons with a single Arabic numeral keeps the face readable without being plain. The Miyota GL32 underneath is a sensible choice: a Japanese quartz unit with a battery life measured in years rather than months, which suits a watch worn for how it looks rather than what it does mechanically. The deployant clasp fastens cleanly and holds securely; resizing requires link removal by pin, which is standard for a bracelet of this construction.

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.
Will the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Does it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
What size strap does it take?
24mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Will it fit my wrist?
Lug-to-lug is 52mm, which suits wrists from roughly 17.5cm (7 inches) upward.
Lug-to-lug decides fit more than case diameter does.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
