Daniel Klein presents a timepiece engineered for the modern individual who values bold aesthetics and reliable performance. The DK1.14005-1 features a commanding round case finished in sleek black ion-plated stainless steel, measuring 44mm in diameter for substantial wrist presence. Its anthracite dial carries applied hour markers and a trio of sub-dials that form a fully functional chronograph, tracking elapsed seconds, minutes, and hours with precision. A date window at four o'clock adds everyday practicality to this striking design.
The black ion-plated stainless steel bracelet mirrors the case finish, creating a monolithic visual statement that resists everyday wear and maintains its dark lustre over time. Powered by a reliable quartz movement, this chronograph delivers accurate timekeeping without the need for daily winding, making it ideal for active lifestyles. Water resistance to 50 metres offers protection against splashes and brief immersion, though it is not intended for swimming or diving activities.

FAQ
Q: What functions does the chronograph provide?
A: The chronograph sub-dials measure elapsed time across seconds, minutes, and hours. Pushers on the side of the case start, stop, and reset the timing function, while the date window at four o'clock adds everyday practicality.
Q: Is this watch suitable for everyday wear?
A: Absolutely. The quartz movement ensures reliable timekeeping with minimal maintenance, and the black ion-plated finish resists scratches and wear from daily activities. Water resistance to 50 metres protects against splashes and rain.
Q: Can I wear this watch while swimming?
A: The 50-metre water resistance rating is designed for splashes and brief immersion, but it is not suitable for swimming, diving, or showering. We recommend removing the watch before any prolonged water exposure.
Q: How do I adjust the bracelet for a better fit?
A: The stainless steel bracelet can be sized by removing or adding links. Visit our Mall of the South boutique, and our team will adjust the bracelet to your wrist at no additional charge at the time of purchase.
Q: What type of battery does this watch use, and how often will it need replacing?
A: The watch uses a standard quartz battery, typically lasting two to three years depending on chronograph usage. When replacement is needed, our servicing team can handle it with genuine components.
Q: Does the black finish wear off over time?
A: The ion-plating process bonds the black coating to the stainless steel at a molecular level, creating a durable finish that resists everyday wear far better than traditional paint or lacquer. With proper care, the finish will maintain its appearance for years.
Q: Is this watch covered by a warranty?
A: Yes, this Daniel Klein timepiece carries a 1-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship when purchased from an authorised retailer like Cassims & Co. Full warranty details are available in the Warranty tab.
