Diesel DZ4669 Spiked Gunmetal IP Bracelet Watch - W11310
Ref. DZ4669
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 £399 across 91 Diesel watches in stock.Diesel's Spiked collection exists to make a large watch feel larger. The 49mm case comes with structural claws that reach inward over the dial, collapsing the boundary between case and face — it is not simply a big watch so much as one designed to occupy space as an architectural object would. The gunmetal ion-plated finish runs across case and bracelet in a single visual plane, with gold-tone markers, hands and sub-dial details providing the only interruption. At 57mm lug to lug, this sits on the wrist with real authority, and the bracelet is integral to that presence rather than incidental to it — remove it and the proportions change character entirely. The deployant clasp adjusts by pin-removal, which means sizing is done once and then forgotten.

Learn more about Diesel
Renzo Rosso founded Diesel in Molvena in 1978, building a denim brand on deliberate irreverence. The watches, produced under licence by Fossil Group, carry that attitude directly.
Where most fashion watches aim for restraint, Diesel does the opposite: oversized cases frequently past 50mm, blacked-out finishes, exposed screws, multiple crowns, and dials that prioritise visual impact over legibility. The Mr Daddy models stack four time zones onto a single dial.
Whether that appeals is a matter of taste, but the design intent is consistent and unmistakable, which is more than can be said for much of the category.

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.
Water resistance explainedWill 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 comparedDoes 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 comparedWhat 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 57mm, which suits wrists from roughly 18.5cm (7¼ inches) upward.
Lug-to-lug decides fit more than case diameter does.
