The Damasko DC80/2 is known for its minimalistic approach to a standard chronograph. It has no date function, or sub-dials, making it not only easy to read but also very simple to use. This is achieved by using the Damasko C51 central minutes chronograph movement, reminiscent of the late Lemania 5100 chronograph movement commonly used in aerospace and automotive applications.

The DC80/2 has an easy-to-read dial for tracking 60 minutes using the central minutes chronograph and seconds using the central chronograph seconds. This watch is the perfect balance between a standard issue field watch, like the Damasko DK series, and more complex chronograph models such as the DC76, DC80, and DC86.

The most frequently asked question when considering a Damasko Chronograph is, "Which one should I choose?" The DC80/2 is ideal for those who enjoy chronograph capability, but prefer a more minimalist aesthetic.  We think that DC80/2 is a perfect everyday chronograph for someone who prefers a minimal aesthetic and values a tool watch capable of withstanding the toughest conditions.

  • Hand-built In house C51-1 Movement, 50 hours power reserve
  • Patented pusher and crown system allows full disengagement of the crown when screwed down. Thanks to DAMASKO's use of special lubricating cells inside the watch, the pushers and crown can be actuated underwater.
  • Patented silicon hairspring that is resistant to shocks, g forces and magnetic fields
  • Tested to NATO Military standards Mil.810
  • The case, crown, and pushers are ice-hardened (not just surface hardened), making them extremely scratch-resistant. This watch is built ultra-tough to withstand any adventures life throws at it. It's also waterproof up to 100m.
  • Flat sapphire crystal
  • Handmade in Germany.

Our Take

On Damasko Watches

Damasko watches are durable tool watches, renowned for their toughness. In a market often driven by hype and marketing, Damasko distinguishes itself by prioritizing functionality. Damasko watches incorporate some of the most innovative technologies in today's watchmaking industry. Features such as the ability to use the crown and pushers underwater, or set the date regardless of the hands' position without damaging the movement. These innovations, combined with their "Watchmaking First" ethos, are just a few of the reasons why we appreciate and wear Damasko watches ourselves.
