New Diesel Watches

New Diesel Watches

Diesel watches, or ‘Timeframes’ as they like to call them, are a hot, chunky wrist accessory for the winter. Great for men or women, Shadestation have the whole collection for your delectation.

New in this season are;

Diesel Watch: DZ4187

This limited edition Diesel watch was created in honor of Diesel founder, Renzo Rosso’s, 55th birthday this September. The wrist piece is called ‘This is my time’ and features this very slogan on the face and also Rosso’s engraved signature. In matte black with a khaki fabric strap this Diesel special edition watch has both amazing style and extreme durability. Each watch also has a unique number as proof of it’s limited identity.

Diesel Watch: DZ1350
Solid, striking and unashamedly urban this Diesel watch is a man’s best friend. With a chunky brown leather strap and a two-tone dial set in an oversized black carbon case this style oozes confidence. The dial is a tale of two halves, with one side picked out in grey and black with white numbers and the other, criss cross, without numbers and with orange accents. Of course the Diesel logo is very present on both the face and the casing.
Diesel Watch: DZ5207
This style is for women, but sports the androgynous look. It looks sophisticated but is definitely aimed at a slightly tougher type of woman and should be avoided if you’re into diamonds and pearls! A slim black leather strap, gives way to a square silver case and a black dial. There are sliver, pink and white accents across the face and the Diesel logo sits proudly top centre of the dial.
Diesel Watch DZ1370
Without a doubt the most sophisticated and charming of the Diesel watches bunch. Although tough and totally urban, this wrist piece would look equally good in the office or out to play. The strap is made of a polished stainless steel linked bracelet and the face is round and oversized. The white minute markers and the numbers 02, 03, 04 picked out, lends this style a uniqueness, and elevates it above other similar models.
Diesel watches are consistant in their design and have a stylish and uncompromising edge which, quite frankly, blows other competitors out the water! For a massive choice and superb prices you needn’t look any further than Shade Station.

March 9, 2010
Posted by David

The Diesel brand was founded in 1978 by Renzo Rosso and is regarded as an incredibly fashion forward, innovative and dynamic brand that is popular for its clothing, shoes and accessories, including the collection of Diesel watches. Diesel’s product ranges perfectly convey the strong brand identity and the collection of funky, edgy and super stylish watches are geared towards those who appreciate a unique sense of fashion.

Diesel has a strong presence in the fashion industry and this is due to the fact that the core team all understand the message that the brand aims to portray. When Renzo Rosso founded the brand, he wanted it to be a fashion innovator and thus broke barriers and went beyond conventional trends to create a niche in the market that other brands now try to replicate. The Diesel range, including Diesel watches are dynamic, adventurous and challenge trends, allowing people to express their style in their own unique way.

Diesel watches can definitely be described as refreshing; they combine contemporary and vintage styling and the recent additions also boast futuristic and sleek aesthetic features. Quirky, kooky and eclectic but in a way that isn’t too over the top, Diesel watches are one of the most exciting and cool accessories around.

Whatever your style, a Diesel watch will help to emphasise that and the various designs are the perfect way to sharpen up your look. Starting with the exclusive DZ7112 for example, if you like slick, charismatic and something incredibly unique, this futuristically styled men’s watch will definitely make you stand out from the crowd. With a minimal time display keeping the look streamlined and the multi strand gold plated stainless steel wide strap, this watch is a real show stopper.

Whilst Diesel is notoriously edgy and a little alternative, if you do favour a feminine look, fear not as the exclusive DZ5147 ladies watch is the perfect balance of elegant and cool. With a vibrant and striking scrunched purple leather strap and purple octagonal dial, this watch remains statement and bold but incredibly feminine.

Perhaps you are looking for something completely unique with high function on the agenda as well as great looks? For all style geeks, the DZ7102 Diesel watch with its three separate time movements and bold wide textured black leather strap is definitely one of those wow watches! With gold detailing, the aesthetic remains chic and sleek.

For something fresh and perfect for moving into spring, the unisex DZ7087 with its white leather strap and multifunctional digital dial with mirror electroplating detailing, this watch is incredibly sharp, sophisticated and really conveys Diesel attitude whilst being versatile and light toned, ideal for spring/summer.

The ranges of Diesel watches are extensive and whether your style is smart, classic, sophisticated, edgy, overstated or elegant, there is something that will appeal to you and inject that element of unique Diesel personality. Rosso wanted to create a brand that provided people with something alternative than what was ‘in fashion’ but that can also be mixed and matched no matter how trendy or quirky your style tends to be. Diesel is a highly respected brand and the simple addition of a Diesel watch will instantly lift your look and show that you have serious style!

The Dynamic Diesel Style, Sunglasses and Watches

December 15, 2009
Posted by David

The famous designer label Diesel was founded over 20 years ago by Italian designer Renzo Rosso and has grown rapidly to become an international fashion phenomenon based on innovative, exciting and highly stylish designs. The Diesel brand which creates casual clothing – most famously jeans, shoes and accessories including sunglasses and watches, has a huge number of stores all over the world.

When Rosso founded Diesel, he wanted the brand to be different and was prepared to take a risk as opposed to following existing fashion and jumping on the trend bandwagon. Rosso wanted to challenge current designs in the industry and provide an alternative to people who appreciated a unique style. Rosso believed that the brand would only evolve in the way he desired if he was inspired by a team of like-minded people and therefore he selected a team who worked hard to create a more dynamic, innovative, exciting and imaginative line of clothing. Rosso was considered a dream to work for as he gave his designers a free reign on their ideas, allowing them to be as open minded as they wish; the only creative brief being to design a collection that was geared towards people who like to reflect their individuality and independence through the way that they dress and wear what suits them as opposed to merely following trends.

Diesel became a fast success and people love the fact that the brand is a fashion leader. You will notice that the style has remained fairly continuous over the years proving that the brand is timeless – if you bought a pair of Diesel jeans five years ago, they will still look fantastic today and the same applies to Diesel accessories such as the collection of watches and sunglasses. Diesel is also renowned for its incredibly high quality products and cutting edge production methods. From the design development of the styles, the choice of fabrics and materials used, to the manufacturing methods and quality control, you can be assured that a Diesel product will be of the best quality possible.

The Diesel ‘trend’ is one that is regarded as applicable to everyone all around the world which is why the company also strongly believes in employing designers, marketers and retail assistants among many other roles, from all across the globe which encourages an unpredictable and varied take on fashion and creates an extremely inspirational environment to work in. This is definitely why the brand has become so dynamic and successful and it is often featured as a case study and used as an example of how other companies could be structured in order to be successful.

Diesel has an effortless yet polished style and when you wear a piece of Diesel clothing or don a pair of Diesel sunglasses, you instantly feel like you are expressing your own style without trying too hard. The collection of Diesel watches and Diesel sunglasses are a great way of injecting the Diesel spirit to your look. With cutting edge designs that will still look stylish in years to come and with cool features such as dual digital and analogue displays within the Diesel watch collection for example, Diesel is constantly creating fresh and innovative looks that are striking but that will work well with your existing wardrobe and enhance it as opposed to contradicting it for the sake of being different. Celebrity fans of Diesel include Jessica Simpson and Britney Spears and this is a brand that is definitely here to stay – perfect for those that work their own unique style!

The New Diesel Watches to Hit the Style Scene

December 10, 2009
Posted by David

Diesel is a brand that is loved all over the world and favoured for its unique sense of cutting edge and dynamic style. Diesel was founded in 1978 in Italy by Renzo Rosso and the range of clothing, shoes, accessories and watches have that exquisite sense of Italian style with a completely unconventional and cosmopolitan edge that makes it applicable to worldwide fashion. Diesel jeans are one of the most popular in the world as are designed to compliment a range of shapes and sizes and look effortlessly cool.

The collection of Diesel watches are very much in keeping with the remainder of the brand’s products and take inspiration from culture and of course fashion, style and trends that are popular on a global scale. Diesel watches are incredibly unique and range from more classic stainless steel models to highly original and eye catching eclectic and vibrant watches that have that innovative and cool Diesel stamp.

There are some fantastic new Diesel watch styles to look out for. Here is a rundown of some new exclusives that are sure to catch your eye-:

-          DZ7111 – A men’s Diesel watch that has a futuristic aesthetic and minimal yet incredibly effective styling, this model features a dark carbon coated strap and case and a multi functional LED digital display which lights up in blue. This watch is the definition of cool and is extremely contemporary in style. It almost reminds me of something you would see in a futuristic action film! The gold plated version is also super slick!

-          DZ7086 – A Diesel watch with brand attitude, this men’s style features a chic textured black wide leather strap and a funky LED digital display with a hologram image. Again this is a futuristic themed watch and definitely a statement accessory.

-          DZ7109 – Now, if we’re going to talk ultra modern then this men’s Diesel watch is a prime example. With a super sleek and streamlined stainless steel bracelet strap with an electroplated mirrored face, the multi functional digital display lights up in red and looks absolutely striking on the wrist. A sure conversation piece!

-          DZ5148 – Something for the ladies, this Diesel watch perfectly combines feminine with edgy. The scrunched black leather strap and chic octagonal dial with a beautiful blue mother of pearl toned finish is perfect for girls who like to be elegant but inject a sense of funky street style and refrain from being too ‘girly’.

These are just a selection of the new models to choose from and this season, Diesel have definitely adopted a futuristic feel to their range of watches which is very much in line with the geek chic appeal that has been very popular in 2009. Diesel watches ultimately offer something a little alternative from the norm with their cutting edge designs, clean lines, streamlined aesthetics and striking features. Of course, if you prefer something a little more typically classic, Diesel watches such as the DZ1244 or the DZ1253 are ideal and there really is something in the collection to suit all tastes. Diesel doesn’t need to be over to top because it represents a laid back and effortless style that looks best in that ‘thrown together’ type look.

There are many Diesel watches including models with chronographs, digital displays, leather and stainless steel straps, striking colours, and of course, the brand’s typical unique style. There are models created specifically for men and women in addition to unisex designs. A Diesel watch will defy seasonal trends and continue to look super stylish for years to come because the Diesel brand could be described as a trend all of its own and one that will always be ‘in fashion’.

The ‘cult’ of Diesel and their unusual watches!

November 6, 2009
Posted by David

Diesel is a label that seems to ooze ‘cool’ from every pore. With the likes of David Beckham, Sienna Miller and Megan Fox wearing their clothes on a daily basis, Diesel is one of the affordable ‘high street’ brands that appeals to both Joe Public and Hollywood A-Listers. Launched in 1978 by an Italian named Renzo Rosso, Diesel’s focus was very much on producing quality jeans aimed at the youth market. Since its inception the label has continued to grow stronger year by year. With quirky advertising, clothes and accessories of a superior quality and a seemingly universal acknowledgment of the ‘cult of Diesel’ the brand has found itself with a strong foothold in the retail market today.
 
Famed for their innovative denim, Diesel also produce delicious smelling scents and a great wristwear portfolio. Diesel watches are sturdy, generally chunky, occasionally unisex and always ahead of the trend. Known for their ability to stay one step ahead of the competition, expect the unexpected and the very best from Diesel. Where else would you find a hybrid watch that is styled one half as a men’s sports watch with a brushed stainless steel bracelet and the other half as a city gents leather wristwatch?! This original watch known as DZ4160 has to be seen to be believed!

Another model – DZ9043, features 3 separate time movements on 2 faces built into the watch all wrapped within a chunky stainless steel multi-link bracelet.

 If you’re a fan of Diesel’s laid back, hip style then we’d urge you to check out their Diesel watches. Designed for both men and women, Diesel watches look great as a causal accessory to any outfit and make an interesting talking point due to their occasional futuristic and unusual appearance!

Be Dashing in Diesel. Diesel sunglasses.

March 30, 2009

Founded in 1978 by Renzo Rosso, the Diesel brand has since become one of the most popular brands in the fashion industry and is renowned for its laid back, cool, yet sharp image. Rosso and his team of designers always aspired to become fashion innovators as opposed to catching on to trends and are certainly that little bit more edgy than the norm. Diesel quickly became a fashion leader and hence, you will often see other brands trying to emulate the Diesel style. Their methods of manufacturing their products are based highly on quality control and therefore every item is as high quality as you can get, and of course, reflects a sense of unique individual style.

For summer 2009, Diesel has a range of fabulously fresh and creative frames and styles. The new polished black Diesel shades with the silver logo on the arms are extremely cool and are a little bit sporty yet ooze style with that high fashion essence. The silver sunglasses with tortoiseshell features are smart and sophisticated and something a little bit different. Diesel also have a fantastic selection of sportier wrap around styles, aviators and the classic frames.

The great thing about Diesel sunglasses is that the frames are unisex. In order for the same pair of shades to look great on both men and women, they have to be skilfully crafted and of a style that suits both genders. Diesel captures this balance perfectly. The brand is one of the key looks for many super cool celebrities such as the Beckhams, Beyonce, Brad Pitt, Paris Hilton and Matt Damon. Diesel sunglasses are a way of portraying your style, in a subtle way that makes a big fashion statement. It also shows you are a true style innovator and not a follower!
