Damasko DC80 Automatic Chronograph - Center Minutes and Seconds
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 янв 2019
- Only a powerhouse watchmaker like Damasko can modify the trusty Valjoux 7750 to have a center minutes counter. Following numerous patents, the DC80 is powered by the Damasko C51-1 movement. This innovative chrono features no conventional subdials. Instead, the elapsed minutes are read via a large minute hand that revolves once every 60 minutes when the chronograph is active.
Come and check it out! www.longisland...
Thank you for watching.
That is a fascinating watch. Before you showed the overlapping hands I thought “Why would anyone make a seconds only chronograph?” The perfect alignment of the chrono seconds and minutes hands is a nice surprise when it starts running.
Really cool, isn't it???
do some omega chronostops have seconds only chronographs?
these Damaskos are like German cars of the '60s and '70s - rugged tanks - understated and more capable than the flashy competition
This would be great with a 12-hour bezel. Set the pip at the hour hand and track hours that way.
Right on.
Already there, I got mine with the 12hr bezel. Just ask and you'll get it.
@@robertbernier7927 I don't think there are any retailers offering the 12hr bezels right now, at least that I can find for the U.S. market.
@@colin7932 the Damasko website says you can choose and that's what I did, I asked for a customization.
@@colin7932 If you contact LIW or other US retailers, they might accommodate your request. I spotted a modded DC80 on the WUS Damasko forum. Had a blue minute counter and a black damest bezel. One of the other retailers quoted me a price if I wanted the same price. Would take about 6 weeks to arrive from Damasko.
The Sinn EZM 10 with the SZ-01 movement offers the central minutes counter I own and it is a great feature
I'm saving up for a Damasko. Excellent watches!
Very nice watch and a typically excellent presentation. This Damasco is nothing I'd spend that kind of money on, but I'm sure plenty of people will.
Very nice to look at, none the less.
Wow I love what Damasko did with that Valjoux 7750 movement.
Cool right?!?!?
Long Island Watch Yup!
This is now my new grail, I will have you, my precious lol thanks Mark, love the channel, and love your website. Thanks for adding a Canadian site for all us watch addicted Canucks.
Thank you
@@islandwatch your more than welcome Mark
I was able to pic a DC80 up pre owned ( they rarely come up for sale). Love it...tank of a watch and i actually use a chrono with this watch.
Nice Chrono, very unique.
But, that Nomos of yours steals the show for me.
Thanks! I love it, rarely wear it.
You mentioned the price and that some might be turned off by what Damasko is asking for. I'm quite sure that you understand, but I'll reassure your viewers that this watch is actually a tremendous value when compared to other brands with similar features. The obvious watch that it compares to is the Sinn EZM 1.1. And while that is a great watch in its own right, the Damasko value becomes much more obvious when the two are stacked against each other. You can say that the Damasko movement is much more interesting, the case hardening much better, the size more wearable, and the price much more attainable. Some will argue that the case shape and dial on the Sinn are better, but aesthetics are a personal thing.
I love this watch, and while the green model doesn't do it for me (although it looks great in your video on wrist), I will get one down the road, most likely a blacked out Damest model, or the very cool two tone version, which I hope to see LIW selling sometime soon.
Mark's review was excellent. Seeing that chrono action, especially when the minute changes, was very cool. I also like that I got to see how it wears on my very similarly sized wrist. It's funny how you notice how others wear watches. I tend to slide the watch up towards my elbow. I don't like when the crown stabs into the back of my hand.
What a gorgeous watch! Thanks for reviewing it, Marc. Damasko is on my bucket list.
Thanks Eddie!
Impressive use of the 7750! Very cool watch . Cheers 👍👍
Thanks!
I held up my Squale Matic Blue (that I got from you) the same time you did! A fleeting, weird RUclips moment.
Nice!
Nice to see a modern central minute totalizer chrono like the old Tissot Navigator..
I adore Damasko, but I like day and date, too. One day I’ll get one off you, Marc.
Thanks Robert. No denying they're good looking.
Comment on Damasko quality: Got my DA46 at the time when Brexit was announced. Bought it from Page and Cooper at very good exchange rate right at the lowest point for GBP. Since that time it has been with me through everything - aerobatic flights on small planes, doing many outdoor activities around New Zealand (Tongariro Crossing, Mt Taranaki walks etc.) and of source the tough day-to-days at the office. I can tell you one thing though - if you are to get it, then get it without the top anti-reflective coating. Top coating will get scratched. To me the difference in appearance and readability is insignificant, but having scratches on the crystal won't make you happy. Overall watch scored amazingly well for elabore movement. Right now it loses circa 1 minute per week, which is ok taken in consideration the amount of beeting it has been subjected to...
I own the ds30 and dc66 (with damaskos steelbraclet). Absolutly great watches. Because of the special surfacetreatment they look like new after months or years. You forget to mention damaskos "triplock" system which is wonderful! Greetings!
Nice watch. Enjoyable video. Thanks.
Thanks.
Damasko well worth the money. Wonderful watches, I can’t wait to own one, tried one on recently and if felt very special.
Very interesting watch to modify Valjoux 7750 to be like that. As you said, it is much easier to read (chrono) and it is something different than many other 7750 movement watches. However, the price tag is bit tough to accept for new brand like Damasko.
thanks for the review. enjoyed it.
Nice Nomos you have Marc ;)
Thank you!
It’s different. That’s what makes it desirable.
Precisely. Wonderful marketing.
Hey Mark, excellent review (as always). I'm a huge fan of your channel. I bought a Marathon JSAR and TSAR from you over a year ago an still wear them all the time (especially the JSAR). Damasko makes some very interesting and well-built watches. I hope to get a Damasko DC66 Si as it is my favorite watch they make. Keep the great content coming!
Thanks Patrick!
Perhaps you could move the bezel round to the one position after one hour and so forth to time longer events.
Or align the bezel's 0 with the hour hand when you start timing
Gordon Anderson just what I was thinking. Lovely timepiece
Good idea. No, great idea!!!!
Could also pay attention to where the hour hand is when you start, say it's at 5 when you start, then when you stop it's at 7, then you would know it's 2 hours, plus however many minutes
I go hiking using the watch. I set the custom requested 12 hr bezel, pip, on my start time, hour hand, and track stop times on the chronograph. When I reach a route point I zero the chrono and adjust the bezel. When I reach my destination I know how long it took. Very flexible
This looks good! A different chronograph!
Totally Cool!
Nice Review :) May I ask how to adjust the time for the watch? It has no second hand, so it hardly can set time exactly, I guess
Some questions, is the cross hair design purely for asthetics ? And is tegiment harder than ice hardened steel ?
I think it’s really cool Damasko rejiggered the old ‘7750 as a central minute counter chrono. Now for some 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon separation:
Nomos Tangente > Tissell 38mm Bauhaus Design 9015 auto (no small seconds, but everything else looks crazy close.)
And the A-13A Pilot Watch ( a-13a.com ) also adds a central minute/seconds counter chrono to a wrist-sized A-13 recreation (albeit quartz)
Marc, Damasko encourages customization. Refer to my comments when I use my 12hr bezel to track travel times in the Cascades here in Washington state
Very cool
Case to me look almost identical to Tudor Pelagos if you exclude the chronograph pushers.
Nice watch, it's interesting you're getting into higher end pieces. Still loved my last purchase of the flight master, tossed a NATO on it, till I can bring it into the mall to have the band sized correctly.
Thanks! Get the flighty sized up!
Damtastic!
Nice word play!
My initials are DC and my birth year is 1980... I need this watch! 😂👉
I’ve been waiting for some of these to hit the second hand market, the price tag when new is a bit more than it’s worth to me. Though I do understand why damasko priced it there being a brand new model and heavily modified movement.
Indeed. Very highly modified.
Awsome looking watch & design! The only thing that spoils it for me is the no normal second hand🤔🤪👍
If it had that, it’d be absolutely Awesome 👍🍻
I have a Sinn like this; you get used to it.
Long Island Watch is it on your webpage so I can have a look at that?
Compared to anything coming out of Glashutte, Demasko and Sinn are steals for the amount of engineering you get.
Wonder why most German brand have the habit of listing all specs on the backside of their watches. I like that!
Damn you Marc. 😁 You keep taunting me with that Squale...it keeps calling me 😭😭
LOL
Very informative another great video. 👍
Thank you sir!
Not a tough sale I have sinn ezm10 which has a similar min counter for more than twice the price which I still think is a value so for all the tech in the crown and pushers along with the movement and case great value
Very Toolly...which good
Indeed!
Nice Damasko, but very nice Squale you keep flaunting. Just a tad out of my price range to justify purchasing, as I would end up wearing it at work, much the same as all my other watches. No safe queens here at my estate. I do forsee another Seiko in the near future, though; no one can seem to hold a light (no pun intended) to the Superlumanova on my Seiko. My SKX is the benchmark for all my watches. I wish my new Karlskrona would at least match my SKX. If Seiko would only update their movement to hand wind and hack in their SKX models, I'd probably only have an assortment or SKX colors in my wardrobe. (Still sad that they won't bring back the SKXA35.)
Thanks for commenting
Damascus is a city in Syria, Damasko is a great wristwatch.
LOL I mentioned the same thing on another video about Marc still teasing us with the Squale.
Sean M heh heh. spellchecker.
Since Sinn also have a central minute and second chronograph (movement sz01) I wonder if they have some special relationship with Damasko, they seem to have other technologies in common too like the hardening for example
I don't think so. But would be interesting.
There was a relationship with Sinn (well spotted). The following taken from Wikipedia: Until their partnership ended in 2002, Damasko was a supplier of hardened watchcases to Sinn.[4]
Also from Wikipedia: Awards and certifications
The Damasko DC56 has been certified as an official wristwatch for Eurofighter test pilots.[2] In 2015 the Damasko DA38 was nominated one of the best men's watches under €2000 by GQ magazine.
Hi Mark. I don't know if you've done a segment on a flying tourbillon type watch. I looked through you list of videos. And I didn't see it. If you have, please let me know. I would love to see it. If not, maybe you could do a segment on a flying tourbillon watch. Cheers!
I did a Tourbillion one; but not flying.
It’s a lot like the Sinn EZM. From what I can gather, the Sinn functions in the exact same way, including the way it advances the minute accumulator. Heck, the mission timer hand even looks the same (little airplane-looking hand.) I have to say, although this watch looks nice, Sinn does it better.
excellent review thank you Mark eddy1e 7/30/2019
great one, haven't seen it yet
Now you have!
Love the look of the watch eeven though I have never heard of the brand. I probably would by one but for that price I will need to do some more research. Great video and review but I think you need some jewellery gloves hahahaha..
Marc are you getting the DC66 at all?
my new grail.... one day. maybe by that time they'll have one with a date ;p
;)
I doubt many people would use a chronograph watch ti time things over an hour anyway.
I doubt many use it at all :)
Very interesting
Thanks!
Love it.😀
Thank you!
looks like a Sinn
we all love the 7750
Why would you want a countdown bezel on a chronograph?
Hi mark. Very nice watch typical German build quality by the look of it but way overpriced for a watch with that movement in it
I wouldn't say that. There's alot going on here.
too thicc
:)
