Diesel 'Five Bar' Quartz Wristwatch

This is an oversized Diesel brand fashion wristwatch, specifically featuring the 'Five Bar' (50 meters) water resistance designation on the dial. The watch consists of a circular stainless steel case with a brushed finish and a substantial, notched bezel. The matte black dial is highly textured, featuring applied silver-tone baton hour markers and a unique orange-tinted minute track spanning from the 9 o'clock to 12 o'clock positions. It utilizes a three-hand movement with broad black and white main hands and a slim blue seconds hand. The 'DIESEL' logo is applied in polished metal below the 12 o'clock marker. The watch is mounted on a black pebbled leather strap showing standard integrated lugs. Condition-wise, the piece shows significant signs of heavy wear. The stainless steel bezel and case body exhibit numerous deep scratches, scuffs, and abrasions across the metal surface. Most notably, the crystal (likely mineral glass) shows heavy smudging, potential internal moisture residue, or significant surface scratching on the right side. The overall aesthetic is industrial and rugged, characteristic of Diesel's mid-2000s to early 2010s design language. The craftsmanship is typical of mass-produced fashion watches, focusing on aesthetic scale rather than high horological finishing.
