Diesel DZ7394 Mr. Daddy 2.0 Chronograph Men's Watch
Ref. DZ7394
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.The Mr. Daddy 2.0 was built around a single, deliberately extreme premise: more of everything. The 57mm case is not a rounding error — it is the point of the collection, a piece of industrial theatre that wears its scale without apology. What makes it more interesting than its dimensions alone suggest is that Diesel achieved this through multiple independent Japanese quartz movements running in parallel, each powering a separate display. Practical enough for tracking two time zones, though an owner should know that maintaining it eventually means replacing up to four batteries, not one. At 142 grams on the wrist, it has genuine substance, and on a broad wrist the 14mm case sits flatter than the visual drama implies. The silver dial is layered and textured, and it earns time at close range — there is enough going on across the sub-dials and digital window that it does not read as empty space dressed up in bulk. The tan leather strap pulls the whole thing toward a military register, which suits the gunmetal case finish better than a metal bracelet would, and the pin buckle is heavy enough to feel proportionate to what it is closing.

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?
No. At 30m it will survive rain and handwashing, but not submersion of any kind.
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?
28mm. 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.
