Price range £105 to £399 across 91 Diesel watches in stock.

The Mega Chief Slim exists because of an obvious tension in the original Mega Chief's appeal: a watch built around industrial excess, pushed wide enough to read from across the room, but thick enough to snag on a cuff every time you reach for something. This model resolves that by keeping the 48mm footprint exactly as it was while bringing the case down to 10mm — a figure that sounds modest and, on a watch this broad, genuinely is. It sits flush where the standard model lifts away from the wrist. The green gradient dial reads differently as the light moves, catching gold from the baton indices and shifting in tone from cool to warm depending on the angle. Miyota supplies the movement inside — a Japanese quartz calibre that Diesel and its peers have built on for years precisely because it runs with very little asking of it. The link bracelet adjusts by pin removal rather than by a crude folded-clasp system, so the fit can be dialled in properly, and the deployant fastening means the bracelet opens flat rather than hinging awkwardly at the wrist.

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 explained

Will 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 compared

Does 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 compared

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.

Is it a men's or women's watch?

Listed as men's.
