DANGO CR-01 Chrono Watch

When it comes to blending rugged durability with sophisticated style, few brands do it better than DANGO, and their CR-01 Chrono Watch with Jet Black Italian Leather Strap is a perfect testament to that. Set to ship in early September, this re-release of the coveted Swiss movement chronograph watch is now available for pre-order, offering watch enthusiasts an opportunity to secure this exceptional timepiece at a discounted price of $350 – a $75 savings off the regular price.

The DANGO CR-01 (pre-order price of $350) is more than just a watch; it’s a precision instrument designed for those who demand performance without compromising on aesthetics. The 45mm watch case, crafted from 316L stainless steel, exudes a robust, industrial appeal while housing a Swiss Ronda Chronograph Movement (Cal. # 3540.D), ensuring reliable and accurate timekeeping. The chronograph functionality, complete with a tachymeter and stopwatch, adds a layer of practicality for those who appreciate the intricate workings of a high-quality timepiece.

One of the standout features of the CR-01 is its commitment to quality materials. The watch is encased in sapphire crystal and is renowned for its scratch-resistant properties, ensuring that the dial remains pristine even in the toughest conditions. The jet-black Italian leather strap not only adds a touch of luxury but also promises comfort and durability, secured with stainless steel buckles for that extra level of ruggedness. And with quick-release spring bars, swapping out the strap for the included free DANGO nylon watch strap—a $25 value included with every pre-order—is a breeze.

Designed to withstand the elements, the CR-01 is 100M water-resistant, making it an ideal companion for both everyday wear and outdoor adventures. The luminescent dial ensures visibility in low light conditions, adding to its functionality and appeal. Weighing in at 204g, this watch feels substantial on the wrist, a nod to its build quality and the meticulous attention to detail DANGO is known for.

For those who appreciate fine craftsmanship, the DANGO CR-01 Chrono Watch with Jet Black Italian Leather Strap offers a unique blend of form and function. With its robust construction, Swiss movement, and classic design, it’s a timepiece that stands out in any collection. And with the added bonus of a free nylon strap, this pre-order opportunity is not one to be missed. Whether you’re a seasoned watch collector or just starting out, the CR-01 is a worthy investment that delivers on all fronts.
