Certina

Founded in Grenchen, Switzerland in 1888, Certina has built its reputation on creating robust timepieces that combine precision with durability. The brand pioneered shock protection with their DS (Double Security) concept in 1959, revolutionizing watch durability. Their extensive experience in sports timing, particularly in motorsports and diving, has influenced collections like the DS Action and DS Podium. Known for offering exceptional value while maintaining Swiss quality standards, Certina continues to innovate in water resistance and shock protection technology while honoring their heritage of precision and reliability.
