Steve Aoki has landed a new job as watch ambassador for Diesel.

The American DJ, electronic dance musician and producer has been snapped up by the fashion and accessories label to front its new 'Transparency' collection of watches, reports WWD.

"I'm constantly looking for ways to create and collaborate on unique and one-of-a-kind material, musically and artistically, whether it be through different brand collaborations, through my lifestyle and fashion brand Dim Mak or expanding my art collection," Aoki told the publication. "I plan on wearing my Diesel watches wherever I go, especially on tour, and it will be very much integrated into my active lifestyle."

The Transparency collection, which launches today, comprises four different models of watch inspired by Diesel's denim dyeing process. The DJ will front the collection's global print campaign, which was shot by photographer Philippe Jarrigeon.
