FAQ
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming or showering?
A: No. With 3 ATM water resistance, the DK113853-1 is splash-resistant and can withstand rain or hand-washing, but it is not suitable for swimming, showering, or submersion. The pushers should never be operated when the watch is wet.
Q: How do I operate the chronograph function?
A: The chronograph is operated using the two pushers on the right side of the case. The top pusher typically starts and stops the timing function, while the bottom pusher resets the chronograph hands to zero. Always consult the included manual for specific operational instructions for this model.
Q: What does the tachymeter bezel measure?
A: The tachymeter bezel allows you to measure average speed over a known distance. When timing an event over one kilometre, the tachymeter scale indicates the average speed in kilometres per hour. It's a classic motorsport-inspired complication found on racing chronographs.
Q: How often does the battery need replacing?
A: Quartz watch batteries typically last 2-3 years depending on usage. When your Daniel Klein begins losing time or stops, bring it to Cassim & Co. for professional battery replacement to ensure water resistance seals are properly maintained.
Q: Can I replace the rubber strap with a different style?
A: The integrated rubber strap design may have specific lug dimensions. We recommend visiting our Mall of the South boutique where our team can assess compatibility with alternative straps and assist with any customisation options available for this model.
Q: Is Daniel Klein a reputable watch brand?
A: Daniel Klein is an established fashion watch brand offering Swiss-inspired design and reliable quartz movements at accessible price points. While not a haute horlogerie manufacture, the brand delivers excellent value and contemporary styling for everyday wear.
Q: Does this watch come with original packaging and documentation?
A: Yes. Every Daniel Klein watch purchased from Cassim & Co. includes the original manufacturer packaging, warranty card, and instruction manual, confirming its authenticity as an authorised retailer purchase.
Warranty
- This Daniel Klein watch is covered by a 1-year manufacturer 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, battery replacement, scratches or cosmetic damage to case/crystal/strap, water damage resulting from misuse or failure to observe water resistance limitations, damage from accidents or improper handling, or unauthorised repairs or modifications.
- To validate your warranty, retain your original purchase receipt from Cassim & Co. as proof of purchase date and authorised retailer status.
- Warranty service must be performed by Daniel Klein authorised service centres. Contact Cassim & Co. to arrange warranty claims or repairs.
- The warranty becomes void if the watch has been opened or serviced by unauthorised personnel, or if the case back or movement has been tampered with.
- This manufacturer warranty is provided by Daniel Klein and administered through authorised retailers. It does not affect your statutory consumer rights under South African law.
Care Guide
- Wipe the stainless steel case and rubber strap regularly with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove perspiration, dust, and oils.
- For the rubber strap, use mild soap and water occasionally to clean, then dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals, solvents, or alcohol-based cleaners which can degrade rubber.
- Never operate the chronograph pushers or pull out the crown when the watch is wet or submerged, as this compromises water resistance.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or impact, which can affect timekeeping accuracy.
- When not wearing the watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the rubber strap's integrity.
- Have the battery replaced by a qualified watchmaker when the watch stops or loses time. Professional service ensures water resistance seals are properly maintained.
- If the mineral crystal becomes scratched, consult our servicing team. While mineral crystal is durable, deep scratches may require crystal replacement.
- Do not attempt to open the case back yourself, as this will void the warranty and may compromise the watch's water resistance.
- For optimal longevity, have the watch inspected every 2-3 years during battery replacement to check gaskets and seals.
