Case

Case material

Titanium

Titanium is a metallic element which is not only extremely robust, hypoallergenic and corrosion-resistant, but also particularly light - approximately half as heavy as steel. This is why Certina uses it to manufacture particularly comfortable cases, bracelets and clasps.

Bezel material

Titanium

Aluminium

Aluminium is very neutral, hypoallergenic, corrosion-resistant and temperature-resistant. However, above all, it is extremely lightweight: Three times lighter than stainless steel and around one and a half times lighter than titanium. These are some of the qualities used by Certina for manufacturing extremely lightweight cases and clasps. The brand uses anodised aluminium only: Not only does this extremely durable protective layer enable the material to be additionally hardened, it allows it to be coloured in any colour you choose too.

Super-LumiNova

SLN is the acronym for Super-LumiNova®, a phosphorescent luminescent material. The BG W9 type of SLN, used by Certina, emits the stored light in the form of a bluish glow in the dark. SLN poses no risk to health and is used to coat hands, indices and bezels. Its brightness decreases in the dark after some time, but it is automatically recharged when light strikes it.

Antireflection treatment on one side

It is possible to enhance the quality of a sapphire crystal to an even greater extent by providing it with an anti-reflective coating on one or both sides. The Certina brand is becoming increasingly focussed on equipping its timepieces with an extremely high-quality anti-reflective coating on both sides, whereby several layers of this coating on both sides of the crystal ensure that it is possible to see through the timepieces in an optimum manner.

Sapphire crystal

Sapphire watch crystal is made of aluminium oxide power (Al2O3) heated to over 2000 °C. The resultant sapphire nugget is cut with great precision into fine slices, trimmed and polished. Sapphire is extremely scratch-resistant, shock-resistant and is very transparent. This is why sapphire crystal is an essential element in the DS Concept and is therefore used by Certina in all of its models to protect the dials.

80-hr power reserve

The power reserve provides you with information about how long a mechanical timepiece can run for without being wound. Most timepieces have a power reserve of around 38 to 42 hours. Certina's innovative Powermatic 80 automatic calibre offers a power reserve of up to 80 hours - almost double as long as comparable models.

Nivachron

An innovative new titanium-based alloy that is used for balance springs. This revolutionary material was developed in collaboration with the Swatch Group and is used in selected brands. Nivachron springs are highly resistant to magnetic fields, shock, ageing and temperature fluctuations, lending them extremely high mechanical precision and making them remarkably reliable in everyday use.

Super-LumiNova®

Super-LumiNova® (SLN) is a luminescent material with phosphorescent properties. In the dark, the SLN type BG W9 used by Certina emits the light stored as a blue shimmer. SLN does not damage your health in any way and is used in coatings on hands, indices and bezels. It progressively loses its phosphorescence in darkness, but automatically regains it under light.

Nivachron™ balance spring

The mechanical movement of this watch is equipped with a Nivachron™ balance spring. This innovative material was developed to increase resistance to magnetic fields. This important component makes a lasting contribution to the reliability, robustness and accuracy of the timepiece.

Partner of Sea Turtle Conservancy

In 2017, Certina became a proud partner of the Sea Turtle Conservancy. The Florida-based organisation, whose primary aim is to ensure the survival of the sea turtle and conserve its habitats in the Caribbean, was founded in 1959 - the same year that Certina developed the ultra-resistant DS Concept.
