Diesel DZ4650 Men's Watch

Ref. TR_DZ4650

Diesel's Griffed line is built around the idea that a sports-oriented chronograph should look the part before it does anything else — oversized, visually heavy, and unapologetic about both. At 48mm across and 55mm lug-to-lug it will fill a larger wrist completely, and the mixed finish on the steel case keeps the dial from reading as a flat slab of black. The silicone strap is the right call at this size: it absorbs the weight and sits flush against the wrist in a way a steel bracelet rarely does on a case this broad. The set includes a logo nylon bracelet, which lightens the look considerably and is worth keeping for warmer months.

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?

20mm. 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.
