I’ve been looking to get a Damasko since 2014 and finally took the plunge, thanks to this great retailer. I was looking for the best price and good support and after trying to pull the trigger with a well known Singapore dealer, the experience was confusing, so I contacted FCW and they were friendly, helpful and very competitive, plus they were based in the midlands of the UK. I was told they had a back order and would be available in 4 weeks, however, the delivery turned out to be just 6 days, so chuffed. I’ve read so much about the DS30, all good, too. The specs and price almost defy convention when considering it’s almost 100% manufactured in Germany. Lots of top technical features, so slim and compact and it looks even better than any review. Living in Scotland, I had not been able to see it in the flesh, but on arrival, I was super impressed with size, finish and sheer precision. What a great everyday watch! The leather strap that came with it is a revelation, soft, yet thick, very nice. However, I decided to buy a nice sailcloth strap so it could be used for all situations, I’m not disappointed. The pamphlet that came with it implied that it might run fast at first until it beds in and they weren’t wrong. It was gaining a fair bit in the first day and I was a bit put off, however after 3 days, it’s slowing down a fair bit more and we’ll see how it pans out. To be fair, I’ve been wearing a quartz analogue watch for the past couple of months, so it’s getting used to an automatic again. If you’re thinking of getting one of these just go ahead. First Class Watches are super competitive and I got a great price. Due to the case hardening, I imagine it’ll look new for many years to come. If I can afford another in the future, I know where to come……as long as my better half lets me!
