Hey guys. Anyone with any experience with Damasko watches. I really like the look and they seem like good value for the price point. The model i'm looking at particularly are the DA37. Thanks.

As Roff says, I own a DA36. A nice watch - most of my impressions are already written down in the review. I'll be keeping the one and actually just bought a folding clasp/deployant strap.


I bought mine new but there is a decent used market out there. Pretty easy to get one in great shape for 700-800.

Thanks guys, and great review Ian. Quick question though, how is the bead blasted finish holding up? Does it scratch easily? Thanks.

So far so good. I've given it a few good "dings" with no signs of damage to the case or tang/buckle yet. I'm convinced that the finish would be in worse shape if it were just standard 316SS.
