Certina expands the DS Action collection with four new executions. Featuring two DS Action Diver 38 mm models and two DS Action Chrono references, the new timepieces combine Certina’s signature strength, precision and reliability with an energetic identity inspired by padel. Built for those who move without limits, DS Action represents Certina’s modern sports watch philosophy: engineered to perform, designed to stand out and built for action. Fast and strategic, padel has become one of the world’s fastest-growing sports and a natural fit for Certina since 2021, when the brand became the first watchmaker to actively invest in and support the sport. Precision, determination and performance define both the game and the collection. Here, colour goes beyond aesthetics: it reflects energy, confidence and individual expression.
Driven by Sport. Built for Action.
Inspired by the energy of the padel court, the new DS Action executions introduce bold colour contrasts designed to stand out. Set against a technical black foundation, vibrant orange, teal and blue accents capture the rhythm of a sport where speed, precision and adaptability decide every point.
The DS Action Diver 38 mm is available in two new versions, featuring a black PVD-coated stainless steel case and matt ceramic turning bezel. Orange and green executions match the seconds hand and bezel graduations. Each colourway is available either on a black DLC-coated stainless steel bracelet for a monochromatic expression or on a matching silicone strap for a sport-inspired look. Powered by the automatic Powermatic 80 movement, the DS Action Diver 38 mm delivers an 80-hour power reserve and is certified according to ISO 6425:2018 delivering proven performance, reliability and resistance under extreme conditions.
The DS Action Chrono introduces two all-black versions with orange or blue accents. Featuring a black PVD- coated stainless steel case, aluminum bezel ring and silicone strap or HNBR, these chronographs capture the intensity of competition, from the explosive energy of orange to the iconic blue tones of the padel court. Equipped with Certina’s Precidrive™ technology, the DS Action Chrono combines exceptional quartz precision with the robustness required for active performance.
Across all four models, precise timing, 30 bar (300 m) water resistance, and Super-LumiNova® details ensureperformance and readability in every situation. Enhanced by the DS Concept Extreme Shock Resistance, each timepiece is built to withstand every challenge, featuring a reinforced dial, a securely fixed movement and a strengthened sapphire crystal for exceptional protection against shocks, vibrations and impacts.
