Here’s another chrono from Certina, the Master Chronograph Watch, an exclusive model, created to blow your minds out. It’s in a 45mm stainless steel case that is treated with black PVD coating, that is shielded with a glare-proofed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. It’s equipped with a crown and 2 push buttons, and is water resistant by up to 100 meters. This new novel is powered by a COSC-certified quartz chronometer chronograph movement - ETA 251.233 and is mounted on a black rubber strap, equipped with a folding safety buckle and a diving extension system.

A blend of classicism and contemporary sport-chic, the DS Podium Valjoux is distinguished by the close attention paid to each and every detail of the design. Contrasts of flat and beveled surfaces or counters overlapping numerals and hourmarkers go hand in hand with extraordinary robustness and faultless precision as well as shock-resistance and water-resistance to 100 metres guaranteed by the DS concept.

In tribute to today’s women, the DS First Lady Ceramic combines a strong character with undeniable charm. Perfectly in tune with its time, it displays subtle contrasts between a bezel with black ceramic inserts and a beautiful pink PVD-covered case that highlights the superbly-crafted pyramidal hourmarkers.
