Short version: there’s no Mr. Daddy 3.0. The Diesel Mr. Daddy 2.0 we featured is still Diesel’s current big chronograph, with new references in its 2026 collection. Diesel has also added a thinner Mr. Daddy Slim. Get the 2.0 if you want the giant, look-at-me dial. Get the Slim if you like the style but want something that fits under a shirt cuff.

The Mr. Daddy 2.0 is not subtle, and that’s the point. Its dial looks like the dashboard of a sports car you can’t afford, and the oversized case makes sure everyone notices. Here’s how it compares with the newer Slim, based on Diesel’s specs and listings (we didn’t test them hands-on).
Diesel Mr. Daddy 2.0 vs Mr. Daddy Slim: what’s different
| Spec | Mr. Daddy 2.0 | Mr. Daddy Slim |
|---|---|---|
| Case size | 57 x 67 mm stainless steel (DZ7413 reference) | Slimmer case (exact size varies by reference) |
| Thickness | 13 mm (DZ7413) | Thinner profile |
| Movement | Quartz chronograph / multi-movement dials | Multi-movement or three-hand date, by reference |
| Water resistance | 3 ATM (30 m): splash only | Not compared |
| Status | Current (2026 references) | Newer addition to the line |
Specs from Diesel’s Mr. Daddy 2.0 DZ7413 page, the Mr. Daddy 2.0 listing on Amazon, the Mr. Daddy Slim listing on Amazon. Checked October 2026.
What matters in real use
- It’s huge. At 57 mm, the 2.0 wears big even on large wrists. Measure your wrist before you gift it.
- Splash-proof, not swim-proof. 3 ATM means hand-washing and rain are fine, but leave it on the towel at the pool.
- Quartz means low fuss. No winding, just a battery change every few years.
- Lots of colors. Stainless steel, leather and silicone straps in several colors make it easy to match his style.
Who should buy which
- Get the Mr. Daddy 2.0 for the guy who likes statement pieces and wears a watch to be noticed.
- Get the Mr. Daddy Slim for a dressier look that still has the Diesel attitude.
- Want something more practical? Pair it with a slim wallet: see our RFID slim wallet pick.
Gift it to: the boyfriend who dresses up for nobody, the brother who loves gadgets with dials, or a dad who still says “now that’s a watch.”
