One of the earlier DA37’s
DSub1
Submarine steel, 300m water resistance, 42mm (43mm inc bezel), 12.9mm thickness and around 98g. All in, a superb watch.
One of the earlier DA37’s
Looks a Damasko
Only the DA43 remains though i'd like another Ds30
I just have this one now & it's the 2nd time I've owned it.
DC67 number 28
The first time I owned this watch, I got it directly from Damasko. I'd placed an order before they'd recommenced production many months before & out of the blue got a "your watch is ready for delivery" email. It's one of the very first DC67's they made on recommencement of manufacture.
I used to have these
This trio took some effort to assemble. It was done whilst Damasko were not making watches - DA37 number 37, DC57 number 88 & DC67 number 15
I also had these that I bought on the way to collecting the full lume trio
Love their watches & if anyone wants to sell a DA38 or DC80 Green, I'm your man.

Wanted - Damasko DC57
Time was I had a DA37 (Sept 2006) and a DC67, back when Eddie was a Damasko agent and they were like hen's teeth to get hold of. They were both bought privately via the forum. Then I decided I had too much white in my life, and I sold the DC67 to a forum member and bought a DA56 from Eddie (Sept 2009). I wonder if the DC67 (No. 0017) is still on the forum? The DA37 has a nice serial No. (0007) but I don't believe it was ever issued ;-) . I still have both the DA37 and the DC56.
F.T.F.A.
Probably the best Timegrapher-plot watch I have:
Who’s the recommended uk dealer for Damasko now, still Neil at Chronomaster?

A DA47 has been my favoured day to day wearer for some time now, despite managing to break the habit a couple of times in an attempt to wear some others more often.
I've also got this DC56si in black but let a DA46 go a while back. Great value watches if you like the style and they barely show a mark after years of wear.

Damasko DA38

My most-worn watch is a Damasko - the DC57 I bought here about a year ago. It's just so legible, I love the timer functions, its robustness, its sane size, and the fact it wears well with any strap I fancy:
A matter of months later I decided to splash-out on a bespoke DC80 - I love centre-minutes chronos, and this is the most minimalist and simplest to use that I think is possible, DC66 'hours' bezel, red pip, and red chrono hands to order, it's a big watch and heavy, with a lovely bracelet, but also easy to wear:
If I ever scrape the cash together I'd like a DC56si - possibly another custom jobbie, this time with orange chrono hands:
Some cracking watches here, a Damasko has to be my next purchase.
Im really wanting a DC57....this thread is not helping!!.
It is another piece of the watch consolidation jigsaw.
Is it still a current watch or discontinued?
Looking forward to receiving this via Neil at Chronomaster. Hopefully should arrive in mid-March.
Great thread.

Similar question.
How do the Da35 and 37 compare? ( think I've got the codes right)
Considering picking up a da38 to pair with my DA43.
Think they're different enough to warrant having both.
Lovely trio btw
Always a big fan for them.

I'd hate to be with you when you're on your own.
Very pleased to add a DC56 to the collection - worn nothing else since it arrived from a forum member a few days ago:
It had some light scratches in the AR coating - they polished-out with Polywatch, but I decided to keep going and remove all of the AR from the sapphire on the basis that I use these watches for DIY, gardening etc, and it would get scratched again, plus I find the benefit limited: I specified the DC80 to omit it, and have never regretted that. Not a difficult job - used a felt cone in the Dremel for most of it, making sure the crystal didn't get too hot, then a clean cloth by hand to finish the edges.
Some handsome watches here. Have to check this brand out more

Here is mine.
Like a few examples on here this is a Frankenstein model made from various elements of the parts bin that I liked. Damasko were quite happy to build it for me for a very small premium despite referring to my initial request as 'highly irregular' - very German and did make me laugh. As many have noted, the bracelet is ridiculously over-engineered but a thing of wonder nontheless. A lovely watch that is worn often and regularly got comments of admiration.

Increased the Damasko collection back up to 3 again with this DC66 a few weeks back. I thought it might be a touch big for me so paired it with a lovely chunky Toshi strap to properly test it and I'm pleased to say it feels great. I think it's one of the less marmite and nicest designs Damasko do and the only problem is that it might mean I wear my other watches even less than I do now!
Used to have a DC67Si and a DA44 to go with what's now my only remaining Damasko, a DA36 Black.

I have one of these...
And one of these...
Although, I’ve thought about chopping them both in for a DA46 on a bracelet, that would be my ideal watch in terms of size and bullet-proofness! I think it would almost be the catalyst to reduce to a single watch (along with a Garmin and G-shock!)

This arrived last week and been blown away how great this watch is.

This may be of interest: worn and wound visited Damasko and made a podcast. They also go into details of what is done in-house, quite impressive.

Damasks is such a great brand - definitely on my list to try some day. Does anyone know if the DA series has been discontinued? Not on the Damasko or Jura websites at the moment. Be a huge shame if so since those are what I consider the classic Damasko models with the ice hardened cases.
