The Daniel Klein Exclusive DK.1.13843-5 is a commanding chronograph timepiece that balances contemporary sport styling with refined design execution. Housed in a 43mm stainless steel case finished in black IP with a striking dark blue bezel, this multifunction watch delivers both visual impact and practical functionality for the discerning wearer who values precision and style.
The grey dial presents a layered design showcasing three chronograph sub-dials, each meticulously calibrated for stopwatch functionality, alongside a practical date window at 6 o'clock. Large Arabic numerals with luminous fill ensure optimal legibility in all conditions, while the dark blue tachymeter bezel adds a technical dimension suited to timing pursuits. Rose gold-toned hands and hour markers provide a sophisticated contrast against the gunmetal dial, creating depth and visual interest.
Powered by a reliable quartz movement, this Daniel Klein timepiece offers accuracy and low-maintenance operation, encased within a mineral crystal window and secured by a genuine dark brown leather strap with tonal stitching. At Cassim & Co., we are proud to offer this watch as authorised retailers of DANIEL KLEIN watches, ensuring authenticity and full manufacturer support with every purchase.
The 12.5mm case thickness strikes an ideal balance between presence and wearability, while the 50-metre water resistance provides sufficient protection for daily wear and incidental splashes. Whether you're timing a business meeting or adding a technical edge to your evening attire, this chronograph delivers versatile performance. Our watch servicing and repairs team is always on hand to assist with battery replacements and strap adjustments, and we invite you to experience this timepiece in person at our Mall of the South boutique in Johannesburg, with nationwide delivery available across South Africa.

FAQ
Q: What functions does the chronograph on this Daniel Klein watch offer?
A: The chronograph features three sub-dials that allow you to measure elapsed time with precision. The sub-dials typically include a 60-second counter, 30-minute counter, and 24-hour indicator, controlled by the pushers on the case side. This makes the watch ideal for timing events, workouts, or professional tasks requiring accurate time measurement.
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming or showering?
A: With 50 metres (5 ATM) water resistance, this watch is suitable for everyday splashes, hand washing, and brief immersion in water, but it is not designed for swimming, showering, or water sports. We recommend removing the watch during these activities to preserve the integrity of the seals and leather strap.
Q: How often will I need to replace the battery?
A: Quartz watch batteries typically last between 2 to 3 years depending on usage and chronograph function frequency. Our watch servicing team at Cassim & Co. can replace the battery and perform a seal check to maintain water resistance when the time comes.
Q: Can the leather strap be replaced or adjusted?
A: Yes, the 22mm genuine leather strap can be adjusted to fit your wrist using the tang buckle, and it can be replaced with any standard 22mm watch strap. Visit our Mall of the South boutique for professional strap sizing and replacement options, including alternative leather colours or NATO-style straps.
Q: What does the tachymeter bezel measure?
A: The tachymeter scale on the bezel allows you to calculate speed based on travel time over a fixed distance, or to measure distance based on speed. This complication is particularly useful for motorsport enthusiasts or anyone requiring quick speed calculations without additional tools.
Q: Does this watch come with a manufacturer's warranty?
A: Yes, this Daniel Klein watch carries a 1-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship when purchased from an authorised retailer like Cassim & Co. The warranty does not cover normal wear, battery replacement, or damage from misuse.
Q: Is the black and blue finish durable?
A: The black IP (ion plating) coating on the stainless steel case provides excellent durability and scratch resistance compared to standard paint finishes. The dark blue bezel is also treated for longevity. However, we recommend avoiding impacts against hard surfaces and removing the watch during heavy manual work to preserve the finish.
Warranty
- Warranty Period: This Daniel Klein watch is covered by a 1-year manufacturer warranty from the date of purchase.
- Warranty Coverage: The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- Valid Purchase: The warranty is only valid when the watch is purchased from an authorised Daniel Klein retailer such as Cassim & Co.
- Exclusions: The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, battery replacement, strap or bracelet wear, damage caused by accident or misuse, water damage resulting from improper use or failure to ensure the crown is properly secured, unauthorised modifications or repairs, or damage from extreme impacts.

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 accumulate throughout the day.
- Leather Strap Maintenance: Avoid prolonged contact with water, perfumes, and lotions, as these can discolour and deteriorate genuine leather. Allow the strap to dry naturally if it becomes damp, and consider rotating with another watch to extend strap lifespan.
- Water Exposure: Although rated to 50 metres, ensure the crown is pushed fully in before any water contact. Never operate the chronograph pushers or crown while the watch is wet or submerged.
- Storage: When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and magnetic fields, which can affect timekeeping accuracy. A watch box or soft pouch is ideal.
- Impact Protection: While robust, quartz movements can be affected by severe shocks. Remove your watch during high-impact sports or activities involving heavy machinery.
- Professional Servicing: Have your watch inspected every 2-3 years, particularly when replacing the battery, to ensure water resistance seals remain intact and the movement functions optimally.
- Crystal Care: The mineral crystal is scratch-resistant but not scratchproof. Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces, and if deep scratches occur, consult our servicing team for crystal replacement options.
- Chronograph Use: Reset the chronograph to zero when not in use to reduce unnecessary strain on the movement and conserve battery life.
