Since 1959, the DS, Double Security, Concept has symbolised the uncompromising requirements of the Certina sport watch brand.

This makes the DS concept integral to all Certina watches, sporty, casual or elegant, all watches benefit from the added security. This philosophy of utmost reliability is reflected in the symbol of the turtle shell, Certina’s brand logo which can be found on each timepiece.
