Certina is a Swiss watch manufacturer based in Le Locle. The name Certina derives from the Latin word "certus", which means "safe, certain". In 1888, the brothers Adolf and Alfred Kurth founded the Certina Kurth Frères factory in Grenchen for the production of movements and watch parts. Today the company can look back on over 130 years of history. The formula of the Kurth brothers was never lost sight of: reliability - precision - innovation. In a very short time, they have established their position in the international watch industry.
The sporty brand expresses its creative dynamism in new, inspired collections, that are very well received by the public. Certina's philosophy combines past and present with constant reliability. The brand has always been committed to the latest cutting-edge technology. Whether in extreme, sporty-classical or elegant design - the vast selection of expressive collections reliably captures moments of an active and modern lifestyle. Both men and women will surely find the model they are looking for.
You can find Certina's innovative DS concept in all collections. The DS stands for double security and features an extremely resistant watch case, that protects the movement even under extreme conditions. The essential feature is the crown, secured with a screw cap, which makes it difficult for moisture to enter the case. The crown must first be unscrewed like a screw before the movement can be wound or the time and date changed. In addition, all watches in the DS line have an extremely scratch-resistant sapphire-crystal glas, a sealing ring on the adjusting shaft, two crown seals, a specific seal at the back of the case and a reinforced case back.
This is how they always remain true to their philosophy of reliability.
