CERTINA FAQs

Certina is a Swiss watchmaker founded in 1888 by Adolf and Alfred Kurth in Grenchen, Switzerland. Initially producing watch movements, the company introduced its first complete watches under the name "Grana" in 1906. The brand name "Certina," derived from the Latin word "certus" meaning "certain," was officially registered in 1939.​
In 1959, Certina launched the DS (Double Security) Concept, creating watches with exceptional shock resistance and water resistance up to 200 meters. This innovation led to the Certina DS accompanying expeditions to the Himalayas and participating in the U.S. Navy's Sealab II project in the 1960s. The turtle shell symbol, representing robustness and longevity, became the brand's emblem during this era.​
Today, Certina continues to produce reliable, sporty timepieces, maintaining its commitment to Swiss quality and innovation.​
Certina watches are known for their Swiss precision, durability, and sporty elegance. With a heritage dating back to 1888, the brand combines reliable performance with innovative features like the Double Security (DS) concept for added shock and water resistance. From classic automatics to robust sports models, Certina offers exceptional quality at a great value.
To keep your Certina watch in top condition, avoid extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, and heavy impacts. Clean it regularly with a soft cloth, and if it's water-resistant, rinse it with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorine. Battery-powered models should have their batteries replaced by an authorised service centre.
