When he’s not occupied throwing cakes he works as a designer for Diesel: The controversial DJ Steve Aoki
From riding in a dinghy to designing
This world-famous DJ excels at the biggest music festivals, including the Ultra Music Festival Miami or Tomorrowland, and enjoys throwing luxurious cakes and spraying champagne at the public or has himself lowered into the public on an inflatable dingy. So the question is: Is the Diesel watch as wild as this DJ’s energetic personality?
The industrial design emphasises all functions
To the great surprise of everyone, the three new types of deluxe Diesel watch are quite simple and also very well-made pieces. They are distinguished by a robust and industrial design and elements emphasising their mechanical functions and, with the exception of the cheapest version, the DZ1868, they are equipped with chronographs.
Forget about diving, but you may wear your watch in the bathroom
With regard to water-resistance, these deluxe watches are marked 5ATM. So you’d better not try diving while wearing one, however showering is permitted.
Transparent and stylish
The deluxe Italian brand offers three models made from stainless steel with watchcases measuring 51x59 mm, 48x55mm and 44x49mm. Each watch is fitted with a blue silicone band and their transparency gives these unique pieces a modern appearance and style.
Behind a DJ counter or in the studio?
The watches by Steve Aoki are certainly specific and are not suited for all occasions, but their design still surpasses anything that the deluxe Diesel brand presented previously, and we appreciate this. So what do you think about controversial artist Steve Aoki’s work? Should he stay behind the DJ counter or does he have a place in the world of fashion?
