The Daniel Klein Exclusive DK1.14006-1 chronograph watch delivers contemporary sport-casual design with precision timekeeping. The round stainless steel case pairs with a dark grey ceramic-style bezel, creating a two-tone aesthetic that balances refinement with rugged appeal. The black multi-function dial displays three sub-dials — day/date at 9 o'clock, 24-hour at 3 o'clock, and running seconds at 6 o'clock — complemented by bold luminous hour markers and a striking red central seconds hand.Chronograph pushers flank the crown at 2 and 4 o'clock, offering stopwatch functionality for everyday timing needs.
At 44mm across, this watch commands wrist presence without sacrificing wearability. The case shape is perfectly round, and the dial colour is a deep black that enhances legibility in all lighting conditions. The reliable quartz movement ensures accurate timekeeping with minimal maintenance, while the black leather strap with contrast stitching provides comfort and a tailored finish. Water resistance to 50 metres protects against splashes and rain, though it is not suitable for swimming or water sports.
Daniel Klein's Exclusive line represents accessible Swiss-inspired design for the modern gentleman.

The combination of functional complications and striking visual contrast makes the DK1.14006-1 a versatile addition to any watch rotation.

FAQ
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming?
A: The 50-metre water resistance rating protects against splashes, rain, and brief submersion, but this watch is not designed for swimming, diving, or sustained water exposure. For aquatic activities, we recommend timepieces with at least 100-metre water resistance.
Q: How do I operate the chronograph function?
A: Press the top pusher at 2 o'clock to start and stop the chronograph. The bottom pusher at 4 o'clock resets the chronograph hands to zero. The central red seconds hand tracks elapsed time, while the sub-dials display additional timing information.
Q: What is the lug width for strap replacement?
A: While the original leather strap is designed for long-term wear, our boutique team can advise on compatible replacement straps and lug width measurements should you wish to customise your watch in future.
Q: Does the dial have luminous markers?
A: Yes, the hour markers and hands feature luminous coating for improved legibility in low-light conditions. The lume charges under natural or artificial light and glows in darkness.
Q: How often does the battery need replacement?
A: Quartz watch batteries typically last 2-3 years depending on usage. When replacement is needed, visit our Mall of the South boutique for professional battery service to maintain the watch's water resistance seal.
Q: Can the day/date be adjusted manually?
A: Yes, the day and date can be adjusted via the crown. Pull the crown to the appropriate position and rotate to set the correct day and date. Avoid adjusting these functions between 9pm and 3am to prevent damage to the movement.
Q: Is this watch suitable for formal occasions?
A: The DK1.14006-1 is a versatile sport-casual chronograph. While its polished case and leather strap allow it to dress up reasonably well, dedicated dress watches with simpler dials and thinner profiles are typically preferred for black-tie events.
Warranty
- This watch is covered by a 1-year Daniel Klein manufacturer warranty from the date of purchase.
- The warranty is valid only when the watch is purchased from an authorised Daniel Klein retailer such as Cassims & Co.
- Coverage includes manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, battery replacement, scratches to the case or crystal, strap wear, or damage resulting from accidents, misuse, or unauthorised repairs.
- Water damage caused by improper use (such as operating pushers underwater or exceeding the stated water resistance rating) is not covered.
- To make a warranty claim, present your original proof of purchase along with the watch at our Mall of the South boutique, and our team will assess the issue and liaise with Daniel Klein on your behalf.
- Warranty service may require the watch to be sent to an authorised service centre, and repair times will vary depending on parts availability and the nature of the defect.
Care Guide
- Wipe the case and crystal with a soft, lint-free cloth after wear to remove fingerprints, perspiration, and daily residue.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals including solvents, perfumes, and cleaning agents.
- Do not operate the chronograph pushers or adjust the crown while the watch is wet or underwater, as this may compromise the water resistance seal.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight when not in use. A watch box or soft pouch is ideal.
- Have the water resistance tested and the seals serviced every 2-3 years, especially if you notice condensation under the crystal.
- Clean the leather strap periodically with a damp cloth. Allow it to dry naturally away from heat sources. Avoid submerging the leather strap in water.
- If the watch stops running or the chronograph function malfunctions, visit our boutique for professional inspection rather than attempting repairs yourself.
