Condition Report

Grade B – Good condition, with normal signs of wear.

The stainless-steel case and bezel present surface scratches and small marks consistent with regular use. The original bracelet and folding clasp show visible scratches, particularly on the clasp surface. The case back also displays fine wear marks. The silver dial, textured centre, applied markers and hands retain an attractive appearance. The original presentation box shows visible storage and handling wear. Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form an essential part of the condition description.

Although the watch is marked as water-resistant to 100 metres, its water resistance has not been tested. Contact with water should therefore be avoided unless the watch is professionally pressure-tested and resealed.

Story & Heritage

Certina’s DS identity is rooted in its Double Security concept, introduced in 1959 to improve protection against shocks and water. This focus on durability became a defining element of the brand’s watchmaking approach.

This DS PRO expresses that practical spirit through a distinctive steel design. Its sculpted bezel and protective crown shoulders create a strong silhouette, while the original bracelet follows the case contours to form a cohesive composition. Contrasting brushed and polished surfaces add depth without overwhelming the watch’s restrained proportions.

The silver dial offers a particularly appealing detail: a grid-textured centre framed by a smooth ring carrying the applied hour markers. Luminous accents and broad hands support clear reading, while the neatly framed date window adds a useful everyday function.

With its Swiss quartz movement, original bracelet and full-set presentation, this Certina DS PRO combines convenient timekeeping with recognisable sporting character. It is an attractive example of a watch designed to bring together practical utility, thoughtful dial detailing and enduring Swiss style.
