FAQs

What does '20 bar water resistance' mean for this watch?

A water resistance of 20 bar (approximately 200 meters or 656 feet) means the watch is suitable for most water sports, shallow diving, and swimming. It is not recommended for deep-sea diving or prolonged exposure to high-pressure water.

How do I adjust the bracelet size?

Bracelet adjustment is best done by a professional jeweler or watch technician. They have the specialized tools to remove or add links safely without damaging the bracelet.

Is this watch suitable for diving?

While it has a high water resistance rating of 20 bar, it is generally considered more suitable for recreational activities like swimming and snorkeling rather than professional or deep-sea diving.

What is the benefit of the DS (Double Security) system?

Certina's DS (Double Security) system enhances the watch's durability and water resistance through features like a reinforced case back, special gaskets, and a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, providing greater resilience.

How often should the watch be serviced?

For optimal performance and longevity, it is recommended to have the watch professionally serviced every 3 to 5 years, depending on usage and environmental conditions.

What materials are used in the Certina DS Action Lady?

The watch is constructed using high-quality materials typical of Swiss watchmaking, including stainless steel for the case and bracelet, and a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal for the dial.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped running

If it's an automatic watch, it may need winding. Wear the watch regularly or manually wind it. Ensure the crown is pushed in fully. If the issue persists, it may require professional servicing.

Difficulty setting time or date

Ensure you are following the correct procedure for your specific model, usually involving pulling the crown out to different positions. Consult the watch manual or a professional if unsure.

Loss of water resistance

Avoid exposing the watch to water until it has been inspected by a professional. The seals may need replacement, especially if the watch has been subjected to impacts or is several years old without service.

Scratches on the crystal or case

Minor scratches on a mineral crystal may be polished out by a watch repairer. For deeper scratches or sapphire crystals, replacement might be necessary. Professional cleaning and polishing services are available.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

As a mechanical timepiece, the Certina DS Action Lady requires minimal setup beyond setting the correct time and date. Ensure the crown is properly secured after adjustments to maintain water resistance. Compatibility is standard for wristwatches; it fits most wrists, and the metal bracelet can typically be adjusted by a jeweler or watch technician for a perfect fit.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the watch case and bracelet regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth and mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Water Resistance: After exposure to saltwater or chemicals, rinse the watch with fresh water and dry it. Periodically check the seals and crown by a professional to ensure water resistance is maintained.
  • Winding (if applicable): If the watch features automatic winding, wearing it daily should keep it powered. If not worn for an extended period, it may need to be manually wound by gently turning the crown until resistance is felt.
  • Service: For optimal performance, it is recommended to have the watch serviced by a qualified watchmaker every 3-5 years.
