Daniel Mink is a bit of an esoteric brand. We don’t see many of their watches here in the US, as they are almost exclusively sold in Europe. This reference is one of Daniel Mink’s Diver offerings, in black stainless steel. This piece is in particularly fine condition, virtually indistinguishable from brand new, and the black finish and yellow accents make for a unique addition to the vast array of Swiss diver watches available. The yellow accents against the black also make it easily legible at a glance.
The emergence of Daniel Mink watches took place in the 1970s. Since then this Swiss watch company is continuously leaving indelible marks in the art of making timepieces. This brand was bought by the Montreux group at the closure of 1990s. The group retained the expertise of the Daniel Mink brand in the landscape of traditional watch making while bringing in avant-garde designs. With the aid of the Montreux Group, there was a renaissance of the Daniel Mink timepieces.
Most DANIEL MINK watch self-winding movements can be wound properly by most watch winders. Usually DANIEL MINK's self-winding movements need to rotate 650 - 800 revolutions per day, and most of them can be wound clockwise. So please take some time and like to choose a cute clockwork that suits you and your watch.

If you could not find your watch model (or caliber) in this table, you may determine your DANIEL MINK. winding mode on a trial basis. You should select the combined winding mode (CW+CCW) and the minimal number of turns per day (UPT). Then place your watch into the watch winder and check after a few days how accurate your watch shows the time. If it runs behind, it is necessary to increase the number of UPT by one step.
