This might be not the high-end of the watch world, but new DS-1 deserves your attention.Ĭomparable watches feature four-digit price tag and here you get everything for acceptable price. It is really difficult to think of possible alternative that will offer you Swiss movement, beautiful design and impressive build quality.
Price is set at 700 EUR what is quite reasonable for what you get here. 🙂 The only thing I might suggest – maybe remove some of the writings on the dial so that we can get pure watchface with Certina logo only? Certina DS-1 Powermatic 80 – PriceĪll 8 watches should be available for purchase when this article will be online. White date window doesn’t fall out of the whole composition, so I won’t complain about it. Smooth curves makes it easy to hide under the sleeve and you don’t feel this watch as something extra on your wrist.ĭial is extremely legible, large indices and light silver color make it easy to check the time.
Mere 40 mm should be easy to wear in any situation. In Useįirst of all I have to remind case size is quite small here. Well, don’t forget about classic NATO, such option will definitely work with sleek case design. Some guys with hairy wrists might complain about such type, but I didn’t have any problems. In my opinion milanese mesh better matches with polished case, but maybe there will be some buyers who would prefer leather on their wrist. Brown leather option can be considered as the nice bonus from Swiss brand. Today’s watch comes with two straps out of the box. Rotor comes with logo and movement name engraving on it. Think what you want, but in my opinion this is serious thing to consider before choosing your next watch.Ĭertina DS-1 Powermatic 80 features clear caseback, so it is possible to see whole movement.

I guess there is no need to mention the main disadvantage of such finish. Watch comes in beautiful polished stainless steel case. Keep in mind it is not as big as the date window on DS-1 Big Date.
This is classic white-colored indicator, so you won’t have a problem checking the date. It is visible that Certina tried to maintain the possible balance between sleek design and small reminders of the brand and watch name. 🙂Īll logos and writings on the dial don’t look weird here. This is not a toolwatch, and here is another tiny reminder. Yes, forget about dark time because there is no luminous layer on these parts. Don’t worry, there are still easy to read and dial perfectly legible in daylight conditions. Indices come in silver too, but that’s not the case for handset.Īll three handset are finished in glossy blue color which nicely adds color to monocolor dial. 🙂 Dial features sunray finish what adds visual interest to DS-1 and makes whole combo eye-catching.
