Details Certina C029.426.16.051.00 (C0294261605100)

The men's Certina Urban DS-1 Big Date watch C029.426.16.051.00 is for men who are looking for a suitable accessory for a suit and everyday attire. Class and a bit of vintage style is added by the combination of a black leather strap, a dark dial decorated with a sunray cut with silver hands and indexes. On the surface of the convex dial, there is a date of the days of the month in Big Date format. Accurate operation is ensured by the Powermatic 80.651 automatic movement, which has a power reserve of up to 80 hours. It is equipped with the DS double security system and the Nivachron™ anti-magnetic spring. It's encased in a silver-colored envelope made of stainless steel. 100 meters of water resistance protects the inside of the case during surface swimming. Product C0294261605100 comes with a 2-year warranty.

Functions

Steel

The 316L stainless steel, which Certina uses for cases, bracelets and clasps for instance, is extremely resistant, corrosion-resistant and hygienic. It contains only a very small proportion of nickel, which is not emitted when worn and therefore does not trigger any nickel allergies.

Sapphire

Sapphire watch crystal is made of aluminium oxide powder (Al2O3) heated to over 2000°C. The resultant sapphire nugget is cut with great precision into fine slices, trimmed and polished. Sapphire is extremely scratch-resistant, shock-resistant and is very transparent. This is why sapphire crystal is an essential element in the DS Concept.

Leather

Leather is extremely strong, breathable and hard-wearing. The process of manufacturing a leather strap comprises a large number of steps, such as treatment with plant-based tanning agents. Certina uses calf leather only and no exotic types of leather – the straps are therefore not subject to CITES regulations. The pattern on some Certina straps, such as the crocodile print, is created using a careful embossing process. Certina leather straps are lined with an anti-allergenic synthetic material to provide added comfort when worn and to minimise skin sensitivity.

Nivachron™

An innovative new titanium-based alloy that is used for balance springs. This revolutionary material was developed in collaboration with the Swatch Group and is used in selected brands. Nivachron™ springs are highly resistant to magnetic fields, shock, ageing and temperature fluctuations, lending them extremely high mechanical precision and making them remarkably reliable in everyday use.

DS

Since 1959, the DS Concept has reflected Certina's uncompromising standards. The secret behind this "Double Security" (DS) lies in a robust design which, with its scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, sophisticated sealing system that includes the stem and crown, and reinforced watch back, covers every aspect of the watch case. Thanks to the DS Concept, every single one of Certina's timepieces boasts outstanding resistance – a quality that their owners can always rely on.

Anti-reflective coating

It is possible to enhance the quality of a sapphire crystal to an even greater extent by providing it with an anti-reflective coating on one or both sides. The Certina brand is becoming increasingly focussed on equipping its timepieces with an extremely high-quality anti-reflective coating on both sides, whereby several layers of this coating on both sides of the crystal ensure that it is possible to see through the timepieces in an optimum manner.

    A very cool classic watch. The mechanism actually holds 80h. In my case it is exactly 82h. It makes a very big difference, I don't have to wear it every day for it to be correctly 'set.
    A very successful purchase. I am satisfied with the Certina watch.

    Tradition in a great way. The Big Date has always appealed to me, and Certina is a respected watch company. Watches are a small passion of mine, another in the collection had to be this one. I'm pleased with its profile, the strength of the movement and how it blends well with clothes of different styles. A nice change of pace.
