Certina DS Action Day Date Watch - Grey - 41mm

The Certina DS Action Day-Date Powermatic 80 boasts a water resistance of up to 200 meters (20 bar), making it suitable for swimming and snorkeling.

The Powermatic 80 is a self-winding (automatic) mechanical movement. It is powered by the motion of the wearer's wrist. It also features an extended power reserve, typically around 80 hours.

If you wear the watch daily, your natural movement should keep it wound. If the watch stops due to lack of wear, you can manually wind it by rotating the crown clockwise about 20-30 times when it's in the closed position.

Typically, you set the time by pulling the crown to the second position and rotating. To set the day and date, you often need to advance the time past midnight until they change, then set them to the correct previous day/date before setting the correct time. Always refer to your specific model's manual for the exact procedure.

Yes, the watch features a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, which offers excellent protection against daily wear and tear.

DS Concept stands for Double Security. It's Certina's system for ensuring enhanced robustness and water resistance, achieved through features like a reinforced case back, special gaskets, and a thicker crystal.

It is generally recommended to have an automatic mechanical watch professionally serviced every 3 to 5 years to maintain its accuracy and longevity.

Manually wind the watch by rotating the crown clockwise 20-30 times while it is in the closed position. Ensure the watch is worn regularly or placed on a watch winder.

Ensure the watch time has passed midnight to trigger the change. Avoid setting the day/date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement. Consult the manual for the correct procedure.

Minor deviations are normal for mechanical watches. If significant, the watch may require regulation or servicing. Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields.

Do not operate the crown or pushers if the watch is wet. Dry the watch immediately and have it inspected by a qualified watchmaker. Water resistance is not permanent and can be affected by seals degrading over time.
