The Obaku V275GMMBSB ILD Dark embodies the essence of Scandinavian minimalism fused with contemporary urban sophistication. This 42mm quartz timepiece features a striking cushion-shaped case in two-tone black and rose gold stainless steel, creating a bold contrast that commands attention. The textured black dial showcases a horizontal wave pattern, punctuated by applied luminous hour markers and a trio of multifunction sub-dials displaying day, date, and 24-hour indications. Inspired by the Japanese Zen philosophy of Obaku — a design ethos characterised by calm precision and the elimination of all superfluous elements — this watch delivers exceptional legibility and refined aesthetic balance.
At Cassim & Co., we are proud to be an authorised retailer of OBAKU watches, bringing you genuine Danish design with full manufacturer warranty protection. The ILD Dark collection represents Obaku Denmark's commitment to affordable luxury, where extra-hardened mineral crystal glass protects the dial and 50-metre water resistance ensures everyday durability. The integrated two-tone bracelet flows seamlessly from the case architecture, delivering all-day comfort on the wrist. Whether you're navigating boardroom presentations or weekend explorations across Johannesburg, this multifunction timepiece adapts to every facet of modern South African life.
This watch is designed for the discerning individual who values purposeful design over ostentation. The rose gold bezel provides a warm accent against the gunmetal-black bracelet, while the sub-dial layout maintains perfect symmetry across the horizontally ribbed dial surface.

Warranty
- This Obaku watch is covered by a 2-year international manufacturer warranty from the date of purchase when purchased from an authorised retailer such as Cassim & Co.
- The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, including scratches, dents, or worn PVD coating resulting from daily use.
- Battery replacement, crown, gaskets, crystal, bracelet wear, and routine servicing are not covered under warranty.
- Water damage resulting from misuse, failure to observe water resistance limitations, or operating the crown while submerged is excluded from warranty coverage.
- Accidental damage, impacts, modifications, or repairs performed by unauthorised service centres void the warranty.
- To claim warranty service, the original purchase receipt and completed warranty card must be presented.
- Warranty service is provided through authorised Obaku service centres. Contact Cassim & Co. for warranty claim assistance and service coordination.
Care Guide
- Wipe the stainless steel case and bracelet regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove fingerprints, perspiration, and environmental residue.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals including perfumes, solvents, and cleaning agents which may damage the PVD coating.
- Do not operate the crown or pushers when the watch is wet or submerged, as this may compromise water resistance seals.
- After exposure to salt water or chlorinated pool water (which should be avoided given the 50m rating), rinse the watch immediately with fresh water and dry thoroughly.
- Have the water resistance tested annually if you regularly expose the watch to moisture, as gaskets degrade over time.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid leaving it on surfaces that may scratch the case or crystal.
- Service the quartz movement every 3-4 years or when battery replacement is required to ensure optimal timekeeping performance and longevity.
- Do not attempt to open the case back yourself, as this will void the manufacturer warranty and may introduce dust or moisture into the movement.
