The bold applied hour markers and contrasting silver-tone hands ensure exceptional legibility, while the genuine black leather strap with contrast stitching provides all-day comfort and versatility for business or casual wear.

FAQ
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming?
A: The Daniel Klein DK112983-2 has 5ATM (50m) water resistance, which means it can handle splashes, rain, and handwashing, but it is not suitable for swimming, showering, or water sports. We recommend removing the watch before any water activities beyond brief exposure.
Q: How often will I need to replace the battery?
A: Japanese quartz movements typically provide 2-3 years of battery life depending on usage. When replacement is needed, visit our Mall of the South boutique where our experienced watch technicians can replace the battery while maintaining the watch's water resistance seals.
Q: Can the leather strap be replaced?
A: Yes, the 22mm leather strap can be replaced with any compatible 22mm watch strap. We stock a variety of replacement straps at our boutique, or you can choose from hundreds of aftermarket options to personalise your timepiece.
Q: Do the chronograph pushers on the side function?
A: This watch features a chronograph-style design with decorative pushers that add visual interest. The multifunction subdials display day, date, and dual time rather than stopwatch functionality. It's designed for practical everyday use rather than sports timing.
Q: What is the dual time function?
A: The dual time subdial allows you to track a second time zone simultaneously—perfect for business travellers, those with family abroad, or anyone who regularly communicates across time zones. The feature is set via the crown and maintains independent tracking.
Q: Is this watch too large for smaller wrists?
A: At 45mm, this watch has a bold contemporary presence. It wears well on wrist sizes from 16cm upwards, though we recommend trying it on in person if you have smaller wrists. The leather strap can be sized to fit comfortably, and the lug-to-lug measurement ensures it doesn't overhang most wrists.
Q: Does this watch come with a warranty?
A: Yes, this watch includes a 1-year Daniel Klein manufacturer warranty covering manufacturing defects when purchased from authorised retailers like Cassims & Co. The warranty does not cover normal wear, battery replacement, or damage from misuse. Keep your proof of purchase for warranty claims.
Warranty

- Warranty Coverage: The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- What Is Excluded: The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, battery replacement, scratches or damage to the crystal or case finish, water damage resulting from improper use or failure to ensure crown security, strap wear, damage from accidents, impacts, misuse, or unauthorised repairs.
- Authorised Retailer Requirement: This warranty is valid only when the watch is purchased from an authorised Daniel Klein retailer such as Cassims & Co. Watches purchased from unauthorised sellers may not be eligible for manufacturer warranty service.
- Proof of Purchase: Always retain your original purchase receipt or invoice as proof of purchase date and authorised retailer status. This documentation is required for any warranty claims.

Care Guide
- Daily Care: Wipe the case and crystal with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing to remove perspiration, dust, and oils that can dull the finish over time.
- Leather Strap Maintenance: Avoid prolonged exposure to water, perfumes, and lotions which can damage leather. Allow the strap to dry completely if it becomes wet, and consider alternating with a second watch to extend strap life.
- Water Exposure: While rated to 5ATM, always ensure the crown is pushed fully in (not pulled out) before any water contact. Do not operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet.
- Storage: When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, magnetic fields (speakers, phones, magnetic clasps), and extreme temperatures.
- Periodic Servicing: Have the battery replaced by a professional watchmaker when the watch stops or displays erratic timekeeping. During battery replacement, request a water resistance test to maintain the factory seals.
- Crystal Care: The mineral crystal is scratch-resistant but not scratchproof. Avoid contact with hard surfaces, abrasive materials, and other jewellery that could cause scratches.
- Avoid Impact: While built for daily wear, protect your watch from strong impacts, drops, and knocks which can damage the movement or case despite the robust construction.
- Chemical Exposure: Remove your watch before using household cleaners, solvents, or chemicals. These substances can damage the case finish, gaskets, and leather strap.
- Professional Cleaning: For deep cleaning or maintenance beyond routine care, visit our watch servicing centre at Mall of the South where our technicians can safely clean and inspect your timepiece.
