The Daniel Klein Exclusive DK114001-5 presents a commanding presence on the wrist, combining bold gold-tone stainless steel construction with a sophisticated multifunction chronograph dial. The striking black dial features three sub-dials displaying day, date, and 24-hour time, complemented by applied gold-tone hour markers and hands that ensure optimal legibility. A printed tachymeter scale on the inner bezel ring adds sporting character to this versatile timepiece, whilst the date window at 4 o'clock provides essential everyday functionality.
Powered by a reliable Japanese quartz movement, this watch delivers precision timekeeping without the need for daily winding. The generous case proportions and five-link gold-tone bracelet offer substantial wrist presence, whilst the mineral crystal provides scratch-resistant protection for the dial. Water resistance to 5 ATM (approximately 50 metres) makes this watch suitable for everyday wear, though not recommended for swimming or water sports.

FAQ
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming?
A: With 5 ATM water resistance, this watch can withstand splashes and brief immersion in water, making it suitable for handwashing and light rain. However, it is not recommended for swimming, showering, or any water sports activities. The pushers and crown should never be operated when the watch is wet.
Q: How often will the battery need replacing?
A: Japanese quartz movements typically provide 2-3 years of battery life under normal use. When the battery requires replacement, we recommend bringing the watch to our Mall of the South boutique where our watchmakers can replace it whilst ensuring the water resistance gaskets are properly maintained.
Q: What do the three sub-dials display?
A: The DK114001-5 features a multifunction dial layout. The sub-dials display day of the week, date of the month, and 24-hour time. Additionally, there is a date window aperture at the 4 o'clock position. This configuration provides comprehensive calendar information at a glance.
Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Yes, the five-link stainless steel bracelet can be professionally sized to your wrist. Our team at Cassim & Co. provides complimentary bracelet sizing with your purchase. The bracelet uses removable links that can be added or subtracted to achieve the perfect fit.
Q: Is this watch plated or solid gold?
A: This watch features gold-tone stainless steel construction, meaning it has a gold-coloured PVD or ion-plating finish over a stainless steel base. This provides the luxurious appearance of gold whilst maintaining durability and affordability. With proper care, the finish will maintain its lustre for years.
Q: What is the tachymeter scale used for?
A: The tachymeter scale printed on the inner bezel allows you to calculate speed based on time travelled over a fixed distance, or to measure distance based on speed. Whilst this is a design element inspired by motorsport chronographs, it adds sporting character to the watch's aesthetic.
Q: Does Daniel Klein have a heritage in watchmaking?
A: Daniel Klein is a contemporary watch brand that combines European design aesthetics with accessible pricing. The brand focuses on creating fashion-forward timepieces with reliable Japanese quartz movements, offering style-conscious consumers an entry point into quality timekeeping without luxury price tags.
Warranty
- This watch is covered by a 1-year Daniel Klein warranty from the date of purchase when bought from an authorised retailer.
- The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, including scratches to the case, crystal, or bracelet, or degradation of the gold-tone finish over time.
- Battery replacement is considered a consumable service and is not covered under warranty; quartz watch batteries typically require replacement every 2-3 years.
- Water damage resulting from misuse, including operating the crown or pushers whilst wet, swimming beyond the stated depth rating, or failure to maintain gasket seals, is excluded from warranty coverage.
- Damage resulting from accidents, impacts, unauthorised repairs, or modifications voids the warranty.
- To validate warranty claims, the original proof of purchase from Cassim & Co. or another authorised Daniel Klein retailer must be presented.
- Warranty service is provided through authorised Daniel Klein service centres; contact Cassim & Co. for assistance with warranty claims and service routing.
Care Guide
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or direct impact, as these can affect the quartz movement's accuracy.
- Clean the gold-tone stainless steel case and bracelet regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove fingerprints, perspiration, and environmental residue that can dull the finish.
- Never operate the crown or chronograph pushers whilst the watch is wet or submerged, as this can compromise the water resistance seals.
- Remove the watch before showering, swimming, or engaging in water sports, as the 5 ATM rating is not suitable for aquatic activities.
- Avoid contact with chemicals, solvents, perfumes, and cosmetics, which can damage the gold-tone finish and gasket seals over time.
- If the watch is not worn regularly, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the dial colour and prevent premature battery drain.
- Have the battery replaced promptly when the watch stops or the seconds hand begins to jump in two-second intervals, as a depleted battery left in the movement can leak and cause corrosion.
- During battery replacement, ensure the watchmaker tests and maintains the water resistance gaskets to preserve the watch's protective seals.
- Avoid exposing the mineral crystal to sharp impacts or abrasive surfaces, though minor scratches can sometimes be polished by a professional.
- Do not attempt to resize the bracelet yourself; always have link removal or addition performed by a qualified watchmaker to prevent damage to the bracelet pins and spring bars.
