Good article in Watchville from Worn and Wound on this new model DC82 which has date added. The DC80 has not date. Once in a while I'll browse the Damasko collection. Quickly scrolling through the few DC80 models I assumed it was a GMT with 4 nice hands. Not so. The article surprised me by noting this is a chronograph with a central 60 minute full dial counter. Assuming a GMT I never noticed the discreet pushers beside the crown. Quite fascinating to be aware of this so if you weren't, here it is where the historic Lemania 5100 movement acted as a role model.

I quite like that one, with the exception of the date window at 4. It’s a pet peeve of mine, it bugs me for some reason.
I’m not sure how useful that complication is, but I guess we don’t really need to time things to the second. Not in our day to day life.
Miss having one, I’ll have to keep an eye on the preowned inventory at Timeless.
