Perhaps my only misgiving regards the white background of the date window at 3 o’clock. The contrast between the dark blue background with its sunray finish and the applied and faceted rose gold-coloured indices and hands is vivid, and the fact that the dial has no luminescent features makes it dressier. The domed dial and applied arrow-shaped indices convey a subtle vintage vibe without going overboard. Viewed from above, the slim polished bezel reveals the more stylish face of the DS-1. Viewed from the side, you can appreciate the solid case construction and the contrasting brushed and polished surfaces. Made of 316L stainless steel, the 100m water-resistant case has a conciliatory 40mm diameter and a relatively thin height of 10.98mm. For our hands-on, we shared some time with the dark blue model that comes with an integrated stainless steel bracelet and an eco-friendly blue fabric strap made of #tide ocean material, which is recycled plastic recovered from the ocean. As mentioned, the new DS-1 models come in three dial colours – dark blue, grey and brown. These hybrids of the watch world combine just the right amount of resilience and style to cover most of your daily activities. The new DS-1 models are catalogued in the brand’s ‘Urban Watches’ section, a category that is popping up all over the watchmaking scene to house models that don’t sit comfortably in the sports watch section or in the dress watch section. To understand the development and attributes of the Powermatic, don’t miss our in-depth coverage here.

Like the hard shell of a turtle (adopted as the brand logo in 1960), the idea behind the double security was to protect the mechanism from all sorts of external aggressions.Īdapted over the years to reflect the latest technology, practically all DS automatics now run on the new Powermatic 80 movement developed by Swatch Group and used by other mid-price brands like Tissot, Mido and Hamilton.
#CERTINA DS 1 POWERMATIC 80 SERIES#
The original DS concept, which is still used on all DS models today, relies on series of O-ring seals on the setting stem and crown with a special seal on the reinforced caseback. After all, when it was introduced in 1959, the DS concept marked a big step toward making watches more reliable and water-resistant. It’s natural to associate Certina’s Double Security concept with dive watches, and there are plenty of those in the brand’s repertoire. Like the DS-1 Big Date of 2019 designed to celebrate the 60 th anniversary of Certina’s DS (double security) concept of 1959, the watch blends a subtle vintage vibe with a resilient case and a robust Powermatic movement. This summer, the DS-1 returns with three new dial colours and interchangeable straps, one of them made from plastic recovered from the ocean.
