New 2023 from Certina DS-2 C024.607.11.081.02
Watch Certina DS-2 C024.607.11.081.02
Friends, hello everyone. You are on the channel about Feeltime watches, Stanislav is with you as always, and today we will consider a novelty from the Swiss brand Certina from the DS-2 collection.
If you follow the channel, you may recognize in this watch the model that I showed you not so long ago.
After all, in fact, Sertina literally crossed 2 hours in the novelty. I took the previous version without a rotating bezel as a basis, and the bezel itself was borrowed from the popular PH200 model.
Therefore, when I take the watch in hand, I certainly have some skepticism. That is, instead of coming up with something really fresh, Sertina begins to rearrange the cubes in the constructor.
Anyway. Is everything so clear? Let's figure it out.
Equipment
The watch comes in today's classic Certina box, created from ocean waste. As well as the handy case and strap that you will find paired with the model. About the strap a little later.
Of course, this is a vintage, everyday diver in its purest form. Sertina herself gives a reference to the design of this watch to diving watches of the 60s of the last century.
Barrel-shaped stainless steel body. The form itself is quite complex.
The sides are satin finish and the top of the lugs are mirror polished. The quality of the finish at the Sertina is always on top for its price.
The crown is screwed down for better tightness. The water resistance of the watch is 200 meters. The only thing is that the size of the head is small and it is not very convenient to operate it.
On the other hand, a large head would spoil the design.
Through the back of the watch we can admire the Swiss mechanics Powermatic 80.611 . This caliber proved to be excellent and today Sertina uses it in most of his watches. The caliber has 23 jewels, a power reserve of 80 hours and operates at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour.
The dial looks expensive and concise. This is a gray to black gradient.
Overhead watch marks. Like the Sertina logo with the DS-2 collection and a frame around the date at 3 o'clock.
The Swiss Super Luminova is applied to the hands and indexes.
Watch sizes . Diameter - 42 mm, ear to ear - 47 mm, thickness - 11.7 mm, weight - 143 grams.
On my arm, 18 cm in girth, they sit like a glove.
Good quality bracelet . We tried to diversify. Usually in this type of bracelet, the main bars are satin-finished and the central elements are polished, but here it is the other way around.
I can't say that I like it. Although the story is definitely not for everyone.
The bonus strap is again familiar. good quality. Feels good in the hand. The quick change system makes it easy to change at home.
Well, friends, I'm ready to sum up .
The watch is beautiful, well made, with a proven and reliable mechanism on board, with excellent performance.
In terms of quality, I have nothing to complain about.
I can only say that Sertina, perhaps, does not want to strain now and invent something new, so she collects a hodgepodge from the old.
On the other hand, during the year the guys released 3 interesting constructors and parents of this model, so to say that the company is completely lazy is also not true.
If you like this design, take it, you will not regret it.
And in my Feeltime.com.ua online store you buy only original Certina watches with an official 2-year warranty.
I also want to note that this model can be brought under you to a store in major cities of Ukraine. Come, measure and pick up.

That's all for me, do not forget to share your opinion about the watch, and Stanislav was with you as always. See you again. Bye!
