The iconic Certina brand never stops showcasing the full depth of its expertise and creativity through elegant, refined, and modern watches - meticulously crafted and consistently high-performing. Founded in 1888, the brand has carved out a remarkable place in the watchmaking world by staying ahead of trends and masterfully blending the finest Swiss watchmaking traditions with cutting-edge techniques. Today, it presents this stunning C0434074404100 watch from its DS-7 collection - a clean-lined design inspired by a 1970s model. Balancing elegance with functionality, it will be your everyday companion, lending every look a polished sporty-chic edge. It features a round case in titanium measuring 39 mm in diameter with a thickness of 9.90 mm - ideal proportions to flatter the men's wrist in any situation. The case boasts a polished/brushed finish for a captivating look on the wrist, comfortable enough to wear all day long. A sapphire crystal sits over the dial to protect it against shocks and scratches. It features an anti-reflective coating for clear, glare-free time reading from any angle. A protected crown with a knurled design is positioned at 3 o'clock, allowing you to set the hours, minutes, and date. Finally, a screw-down case back ensures water resistance of 10 ATM while offering a glimpse of the movement through its display window.

The Dial

The round dial reveals a blue sunray finish that brings a modern, dynamic energy to the whole piece. It adds an elegant touch to any outfit and makes the watch shine on your wrist, ensuring crisp, clear time reading. It offers smooth analog display along with a date complication via a white-background date window at 3 o'clock. At the center, two baton hands in grey sweep alongside a slim grey seconds hand for precise indication of hours, minutes, and seconds. Bearing the "Swiss Made" label, the outer ring features a minute track graduated in white with lines and small squares every 5 minutes. The hours are marked by twelve baton indices in grey. Both the indices and hands feature a SuperLuminova coating for enhanced visibility in low-light conditions. Finally, the brand adds its name, logo, and founding date below 12 o'clock as a signature, and notes at 6 o'clock the collection name followed by the caliber and the "Titanium" designation.

The Movement

Powering this timepiece is the Powermatic 80.611 caliber, ensuring reliable daily performance. Developed by Swiss manufacturer ETA, this automatic movement delivers flawless precision and quality, driving the hands and date window with smooth, accurate indication of hours, minutes, seconds, and date. Featuring 25 jewels and a Nivachron balance spring, it is resistant to magnetic fields and beats at a frequency of 21,600 vph (3 Hz). It offers a power reserve of 80 hours.

The Bracelet

The bracelet that accompanies this watch is also crafted in titanium with the same polished/brushed finish, ensuring a cohesive and timeless look. Incredibly comfortable to wear in any situation, it brings an exquisite sport-chic touch to your style. Its clean link design gently wraps around the wrist with a refined, understated elegance. Easy to pair with any outfit, it features custom-fit lug width and a folding clasp with push-button releases for effortless, secure fastening throughout the day.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters. This is a truly water-resistant timepiece! Its sporty character means it's ready to dive into aquatic adventures with you. From puddles to the pool, this watch handles splash and swim without complaint - shower, bath, and recreational swimming are no problem at all. That said, Ocarat's watchmaking experts want you to know that while this model is water-resistant, it is not designed for diving (professional or otherwise) and should be kept away from high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend keeping the crown and push-buttons dry during immersion.
