(Unexpectedly) Refined: Certina DS Podium Shape
Presented in a compact, cushion-shaped body, the 2013 Certina DS Podium Shape (ref. C025.510.16.033.00) is an affordable unisex watch that looks surprisingly refined for a timekeeper that is offered at a price well below the $1000 mark.
Certina DS Eagle GMT Chronograph C023.739.27.051.00
Probably inspired by the high-tech Linde Werdelin SpidoSpeed family of mildly skeletonized divers, the new Certina DS Eagle GMT chronograph (ref. C023.739.27.051.00) is equipped with a lot simpler ETA G10.961 caliber: the same quartz movement that powered their 2011 DS Podium Ole Einar Bjorndalen model, but is encased in a lot sportier body.
A Tissot Alternative: Limited-Edition Certina DS Powermatic 80
Certina has designed this dressy 2013 DS Powermatic 80 (ref. C026.407.16.087.01) to compete with the recently presented Tissot Luxury Automatic collection. Sporting the same self-winding Caliber ETA CO7.111 (also dubbed as Powermatic 80), this one features a similar dial layout and boasts the same impressive power reserve of the whole 80 hours.
Certina DS Action Diver Chronograph for Omega Fans
With its new Certina DS Action Diver Automatic Chronograph (ref. C013.427.11.051.00), the Swiss watchmaker targets customers who can’t afford the current Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean collection, even though so far the brand can offer you neither a ceramic bezel, nor an in-house movement, they are ready to give you a *very* interesting price.
Your First Swiss-Made: Certina DS1 “Double Security”
Even though Certina DS1 “Double Security” (ref. C006.407.16.088.00) offers a pretty generic design, it is a nice entry-level model for those high-school graduates still dreaming about their first dress watch with the legendary “Swiss Made” inscription on the dial, which is said to be adding at least +10 to mating abilities and +25 to personal charisma.
