I do not have the fund yet, but just checking with fellow MWF members, if given the option to pick only one, which will you go first?
Note: Price, Movement all the same except for obvious dial and bezel design...
Refer to photos posted by Mr. Danny in a different thread....
1.) Damasko DK10 with the new Damasko in-house manufactured movement A35-1.

Would go for the while dial. Much more unik over the more regular black dial watch :thumbsup:
-
I would go for the lume dial.
-
I went for the DK11 because:
i) I already have this one (DC66 Black).

i) So I wanted a white dial this time around.

ii) The lume on the white dial makes the difference for me:

Anybody know if we can ask the AD to change the bezel to the other type?
e.g. DK10 bezel placed on DK11

Not sure abt AD but i think buying damasko diretcly does give you the option what bezel to put.

DK 11 is the clear winner here.... Anybody own one yet? Any comment?
-
white dial is my vote :thumbsup:
-
dk10 +1 :)
-
Somehow, design wise... i feel that the red seconds hand and the Si on the dial looks better with white on the background.
That's just me.
-
IMHO i think the white dial looks cooler (can't think of other words now) :Laughing_on_floor:
but yeah~ white FTW ! the red contrast matches the white better, plus the white stitching on the strap is more visible too ;D
-
DK 11 :)
-
I would prefer DK11 too but would prefer to maintain the 12 hour bezel because it's easier to track a second timezone with it.
Unless u dive or track minutes instead of hour, you can consider to maintain the bezel as it is for a change.
-
I prefer the Black Dial... just find the red Si word on the white dial feels out of place.

I was thinking of getting DK 10 black dial with hour bezel.... but looking at Danny's wrist/lume shots.... now tilting towards DK 11 with its standard hour bezel..
-
I believe you get to choose between hour or minutes rotatable bezel.
I would get the hour bezel as well. More practical for use.

i believe the price of these 2 watch is much higher compare to other 3-hand damasko as it is using bits of silicon and in house movement.

Yes, these 2 pieces with the manufacture caliber A35 command a premium compared to regular Damasko models with ETA engines. Yet Damasko's asking price is a relative bargain considering the technology that go into the new movement and the kind of prices that the Swiss brands are now asking for their in-house movements.

DK11, full lume FTW
-

and Silicon Escapement(Si) technology(used by Patek?)
(http://i1217.photobucket.com/albums/dd392/rusminag/685437d1334879217-damasko-dk11-review-pics-long-escapement.jpg)
Another option is to go for cheaper DK15 which only available next July/August minus the Si...
