As part of Certina’s DS Action collection, this timepiece embodies the brand’s maritime heritage and commitment to reliability under pressure. Designed for underwater exploration and built to meet ISO standards for diving watches, it offers exceptional water resistance up to 300 meters, making it suitable for scuba diving, snorkeling, and swimming. Beyond its technical capabilities, the watch features a bold, contemporary design with a 43mm stainless steel case and a sleek black dial, ensuring it stands out whether you’re on a dive boat or in the boardroom. Powered by the self-winding Powermatic 80 caliber, it delivers up to 80 hours of power reserve, eliminating the need for batteries and providing consistent timekeeping even after days of non-use. The automatic movement captures energy from the wearer’s natural motion, ensuring the watch remains accurate and ready without manual winding.
Key Features
- Swiss Automatic Movement: At the heart of this watch is the Powermatic 80 caliber, a Swiss-made automatic movement known for its precision and extended 80-hour power reserve. This means the watch can run for over three full days without being worn, making it ideal for travelers or those who rotate multiple timepieces. The self-winding mechanism ensures continuous operation through daily activity, requiring no battery replacements.
- 43mm Stainless Steel Case: The substantial yet well-proportioned case strikes a balance between presence and comfort. Crafted from high-quality stainless steel, it resists corrosion from saltwater, sweat, and humidity, maintaining its polished finish over time. The 43mm diameter suits medium to large wrists and projects confidence without overwhelming the wearer.
- Black Dial with Plastic Bezel: The deep black dial enhances readability in low-light conditions, especially underwater. Luminous markers and hands allow for clear time-checking in dark or murky environments. The unidirectional rotating bezel, made from durable plastic, enables precise dive timing and features a textured surface for secure handling, even with wet or gloved fingers.
- 300m Water Resistance: Certified for professional diving, this watch meets rigorous standards for water resistance. It can withstand pressures encountered during recreational scuba diving, snorkeling, and surface water sports. The robust construction ensures no water ingress, even at significant depths.
- DS Action Heritage: As part of Certina’s DS (Double Security) collection, this model benefits from a legacy of shock resistance and enhanced protection for the movement. The DS system safeguards the internal mechanics from impacts and environmental stress, making it a dependable choice for active lifestyles and demanding conditions.
