Certina DS-8 Chrono Watch C0454171105100

The Watch

Certina has carved out its place in the watchmaking industry with sophisticated, elegantly engineered timepieces built on cutting-edge technology. This unmatched expertise comes to life in the DS-8 Chrono C0454171105100 - a reliable, refined watch that will elevate any look. It features a round case weighing 150 g, measuring 41 mm in diameter with a thickness of 11.55 mm - crafted in 316L stainless steel with a brushed and polished finish that accentuates its silver tone and gives it a truly timeless design. The dial is shielded by a sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating for outstanding legibility. A knurled crown and two pushbuttons at 2, 3, and 4 o'clock allow easy adjustment of all functions. Finally, this watch is water-resistant to 10 ATM thanks to its snap-on caseback.

The Dial

This timepiece features a clean, refined dial that enhances its elegant aesthetic. Set against a black background, two hands coated with SuperLuminova BG W9 treatment ensure clear time reading in low-light conditions. They point to beveled indices paired with SuperLuminova BG W9 dots. The slim hand alongside them tracks the chronograph seconds. The sub-dials at 2, 6, and 10 o'clock display 1/10th of a second, small seconds, and 30 minutes. The dial also features a minute track and a date window at 4 o'clock, while the country of manufacture is indicated at 6 o'clock. Finally, the brand name and its founding date are displayed beneath the 12 o'clock index.

The Movement

This watch is powered by a quartz movement featuring the advanced Precidrive™ technology, delivering exceptional precision and outstanding performance. The Swiss-made ETA G10.212 caliber provides reliable display of hours, minutes, seconds, date, and chronograph functions. Powered by a battery with a 3-year lifespan, this mechanism comprises 4 jewels, includes an end-of-life battery indicator, and operates at a frequency of 32,768 Hz.

The Strap

The stunning bracelet on this watch is crafted from 316L stainless steel. Its silver tone is elevated by a polished finish, while the brushed finish lends it a timeless appeal. This link bracelet has a lug width of 21 mm and secures firmly to your wrist via a silver-toned deployant clasp.

Water Resistance

With 10 ATM water resistance - that's 100 meters in watchmaking speak - this bold timepiece is equally at home at a black-tie gala or in the water. Wear it in the shower, the bath, or during a serious swim session without a second thought. That said, our team of watch experts wants to be clear: this model is not built for scuba diving, freediving, or high-pressure cleaning. Remember: showers, baths, and swimming only - and keep those pushers and crown out of reach while submerged!
