The warmer months have arrived, drawing people into the water. Certina now presents a new mechanical wristwatch that perfectly captures this carefree summer exuberance. The DS Action Diver Chrono is a robust diver's watch with water resistance of up to 30 bar (300 metres), which meets the strict requirements of ISO 6425, making it an essential piece of kit for those venturing underwater. But the chronograph cuts a stylish figure on dry land too, with its sand-coloured dial and striped strap, making it a maritime companion around the clock.
Diving is more than just a hobby, it is a real passion. A passion that Certina has shared for many years. Now the Swiss watch manufacturer presents a timepiece that is equally in its element underwater and above water. The new DS Action Diver Chrono is a reliable precision instrument that allows you to keep a constant eye on your diving time. Its functional characteristics include a screw-down crown with crown protection, a unidirectional rotating bezel with ceramic insert and generous Super-LumiNova® coating on the hands and indices. Combined with water resistance of up to 30 bar (300 metres), the elegant chronograph fulfils the requirements of the renowned ISO standard 6425:2018 for diver's watches.
The DS Action Diver Chrono will also turn heads on the promenade. Its matt sand-coloured dial, striking a contrast against the black ceramic bezel and gold-coloured hands, gives it a modern look. The striped textile strap in black, grey and beige picks up the colours of the watch perfectly and is made from sustainable #tide ocean material®. The strap also ensures a secure fit on the wrist and can be replaced without the need for any tools thanks to the quick-change system.
Inside the eye-catching 44.5 mm diameter round stainless steel case beats a modern mechanical calibre A05.231 with automatic winding. Its silicon balance spring remains unaffected by magnetic fields and makes the watch's performance even more reliable. Like all watches in the Certina collection, the new diver's watch also features the DS concept of Double Security. Alongside the sand-coloured version with striped strap, the model is also available with a classic steel bracelet with a diving extension coupled with either a black or blue dial and a colour-coordinated ceramic bezel.
The new DS Action Diver Chrono will be available from all official Certina retailers worldwide from the end of July 2024.
