- R 6,199
The Diesel Spiked DZ4627 is a bold statement of industrial design and contemporary masculinity, delivering an unapologetic 49mm case presence that commands attention on the wrist. This quartz chronograph unites robust stainless steel construction with warm gold-tone accents across its two-tone bracelet and integrated bezel screws, creating a striking contrast against the deep black dial. The dial architecture showcases Diesel's signature industrial aesthetic with oversized luminous hour markers, three chronograph sub-dials, and a date window at 4 o'clock, all anchored by the bold Diesel logo at 12 o'clock. Gold-tone hands and markers ensure legibility whilst reinforcing the watch's masculine design language, whilst the screw-down crown at 3 o'clock bears the engraved "Twelve" insignia that has become synonymous with the brand's identity.
Engineered for the modern individual who values both form and function, this timepiece features a reliable quartz chronograph movement housed within a 13mm case profile that balances wearability with visual impact. The bi-colour stainless steel bracelet employs a three-link design with alternating polished steel and gold-tone centre links, secured by a deployment clasp for confident all-day wear. Water resistance to 5 ATM (50 metres) provides protection against splashes and brief immersion, making this an ideal companion for everyday urban adventures. The mineral crystal protects the dial whilst maintaining clarity, and the fixed bezel with its integrated gold-tone screws adds an architectural dimension to the overall design vocabulary.

FAQ
Q: Is the Diesel Spiked DZ4627 suitable for swimming or water sports?
A: The watch is water resistant to 5 ATM (50 metres), which provides protection against splashes, rain, and brief immersion. However, it is not recommended for swimming, diving, or water sports. The chronograph pushers should never be operated whilst underwater, as this may compromise the water resistance seal.
Q: What is the power source for this watch?
A: This timepiece uses a quartz movement powered by a replaceable battery. The battery typically lasts 2-3 years depending on usage, particularly chronograph function usage. Battery replacement is available at our Mall of the South boutique.
Q: How do I operate the chronograph function on the DZ4627?
A: The chronograph is operated via the pushers flanking the crown. The top pusher starts and stops the chronograph timing, whilst the bottom pusher resets the chronograph hands to zero. The three sub-dials display elapsed seconds, minutes, and hours of chronograph operation.
Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Yes, the bracelet features removable links that allow for precise sizing adjustment. We offer complimentary bracelet sizing at our Mall of the South boutique at the time of purchase, and our team can accommodate future adjustments should your requirements change.
Q: Is the gold-tone finish on this watch durable?
A: The gold-tone accents on the DZ4627 feature PVD or ion-plating, which provides excellent durability and resistance to wear compared to traditional gold plating. With proper care and avoiding harsh chemicals, the finish will maintain its appearance throughout years of regular wear.
Q: What is the lug-to-lug measurement of this 49mm case?
A: Whilst the official lug-to-lug measurement is not published by Diesel for this model, the 49mm case diameter indicates this is a substantial timepiece best suited to larger wrists (typically 18cm/7 inches and above). We recommend trying the watch on in person at our boutique to assess fit and comfort.
Q: Does this watch come with original Diesel packaging?
A: Yes, as an authorised Diesel retailer, every DZ4627 we sell comes complete with original Diesel presentation box, instruction manual, and international warranty card. This ensures full authentication and warranty coverage.
