DK32 Ocean

(2 Reviews)

From a remarkable brand demonstrating excellence in the field of German watchmaking, Damasko’s timepieces are best known for their use of innovative and advanced technologies to achieve seemingly over-built specifications, they’re simply built like a tank. This time, Damasko unveiled their latest DK32 line which boasts the familiar crosshair dial design with a groundbreaking new in-house automatic movement. With such a big leap for the brand, Damasko is really spicing things up here.

Damasko DK32 Ocean with Submarine Steel

The case of the Damasko DK32 Ocean is made in-house by Damasko and is the second model after the Dsub1 to be using what Damasko calls "Deutscher U-Boat-Stahl," which translates to be German Submarine Steel. The U-Boat steel is a high strength alloy steel and used extensively in the construction of German submarines and navy ships. The specially bead-blasted submarine steel ensures a high level of durability, scratch and corrosion resistance.

Another unique characteristic of the submarine steel has to be the color of the steel. The dark titanium grey color gives the watch a utilitarian, no-nonsense attitude while balancing with its classic case size and sterile-like dial.

Despite not being a dive watch, this phenomenal case of the DK32 Ocean achieves a substantial water resistance rating of 200m. With a tasteful diameter of 39mm, a lug to lug length of 48mm and a case thickness of 9.95mm, the watch rests extremely comfortably on the wrist, especially with its pleasing curved lugs design.

German Precision

A flat sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment on both sides ensures maximum readability regardless of lighting conditions. And for those who love strap swapping, the DK32 has drilled through lugs for easy spring bar removal.

The crown is also equipped with Damasko's patented lubrication cell which ensures smooth action and lubricates the shaft and the gasket.

The main highlight of the DK32 Ocean is undoubtedly its latest introduction of Damasko’s impressive in-house movement. Driven by the in-house Damasko calibre A26-2 German-made automatic movement, the 20-jewel movement features a power reserve of 42 hours and a beat rate of 28,800 beats per hour.

Thin profile with curved lugs for added comfort

Moreover, the movement is certified to be shockproof and anti-magnetic in accordance with the DIN 8308 and 8309 standards of the Deutsches Institut für Normung - German Institute for Standardization. Adjusted in 5 positions by Damasko to achieve a high level of accuracy, this latest in-house movement is truly spectacular. For a clear view of the A26-2 movement, the see-through exhibition case back displays Damasko’s custom-signed rotor, complete with decorative blue screws.

Next to the dial, is the same design language employed on the Dsub1 and DC80. This time, the DK32 Ocean features a matte marine blue dial with a crosshair that is now synonymous with Damasko, with a different plot design. Having the date window situated discreetly at the 3 o’clock position with a matching black background, the dial of the DK32 Ocean remains clean and uncluttered.

SuperLuminova index for night legibility

The DK32 Ocean sports a 20mm Damasko "Robby" black-blue rubber strap with a Damasko-signed secure pin buckle, keeping the oceanic theme well in place for an all-day comfortable fit.

With Damasko’s latest implementation of their very own in-house calibre in their DK32 collection, this elevates the brand to even greater heights, further embodying the precision in manufacturing the German is best known for while presenting a complete package with a formidable exterior and a mighty in-house engine.
