What watch do you wear?

This week's watch is a Damasko DC58. This particular model has a TOP grade 7750. Denoted by the blue chrono hand.

What makes these watches neat. The case is hardened stainless steel. 60HRC. To include a cryogenic treatment. The same as your knife. They won't say what steel it is, but I'm sure it's a Bohler-Uddeholm product.

Thanks. It is a CWC reissue. They have several reissues that are almost identical to the Originals.
Also have the 1980 Fatboy Reissue which I really love

From their site:
1970s reissue mechanical hand-wound watch which was originally issued to
British Army W10, Royal Navy 0552 & RAF 6BB.
Classic military tonneau case design. Luminous hands and markers, acrylic glass. Clear to read, functional and reliable. A classic military timepiece that will provide years of service. Mechanical Swiss movement. Swiss parts, Swiss-made.

Leather bands on dive watches just doesn't sit right in my head; so I gave it a black metal band. I thought it would look better than a regular "silver" band; but this may be an example of why nobody asks me that kind of question 😖 I did try a quick search for bronze options; but what I saw was too small

(Maybe I'll go back to the leather, lol)

I gave my BNIB Glycine Combat Sub to my son-in-law for Christmas 2019, after my watchmaker took the new watch and adjusted it to +1 sec/day.

My son wearing his birth-year Omega Speedmaster that day, while I wore my un-special one.
