FAQ
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming?
A: Yes, the Daniel Klein DK113683-1 is water-resistant to 5ATM (50 metres), making it suitable for recreational swimming and water sports. However, it is not recommended for diving or high-pressure water activities. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before water exposure.
Q: What type of battery does this watch use and how often does it need replacing?
A: This watch uses a standard quartz watch battery. Typical battery life ranges from 2 to 3 years depending on usage. Cassims & Co. offers battery replacement services at our Mall of the South boutique for your convenience.
Q: Can the silicone strap be replaced?
A: Yes, the silicone strap can be replaced with another compatible strap. The watch uses a standard lug width, allowing for aftermarket strap options. Our team can assist with strap changes and recommendations at our Johannesburg boutique.
Q: What is the purpose of the rotating bezel?
A: The unidirectional rotating bezel is a dive watch feature used to track elapsed time. Align the bezel's zero marker with the minute hand at the start of an activity, and the bezel will indicate how many minutes have passed. The unidirectional design (rotating only counter-clockwise) is a safety feature to prevent accidental over-estimation of remaining air supply in diving contexts.
Q: Is this watch suitable for formal occasions?
A: Whilst the DK113683-1 is primarily a sporty diver-style watch, its clean black and white colour scheme and stainless steel case allow it to transition reasonably well to smart-casual settings. For formal black-tie events, a dress watch would be more appropriate.
Q: Does the watch have luminous hands and markers?
A: Yes, both the hands and hour markers feature luminous material, allowing for excellent low-light and nighttime readability once charged by exposure to light.
Q: Is nationwide delivery available?
A: Yes, Cassims & Co. offers secure nationwide delivery across South Africa. You can also visit our Mall of the South boutique in Johannesburg to view and try on the watch in person before purchasing.

Care Guide
- Rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorinated water to prevent corrosion and maintain the silicone strap condition.
- Avoid operating the crown or pushers whilst the watch is wet or submerged, as this can compromise water resistance.
- Store your watch away from strong magnetic fields (speakers, mobile phones, magnetic clasps) which can affect timekeeping accuracy.
- Clean the case and silicone strap regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, sweat, and oils.
- Have the water resistance tested annually if you regularly expose the watch to water, particularly before swimming season.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, harsh chemicals, solvents, or perfumes which can damage seals and the silicone strap.
- When not in use, store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the dial and strap material.
- If the watch stops or shows signs of irregular timekeeping, bring it to Cassims & Co. for battery replacement or servicing.
- Avoid impact and dropping the watch, as the mineral crystal and internal components can be damaged by sudden shock.
