Men's watch Certina DS-7 Chrono Auto C043.427.11.041.00 is new for 2024. This model wins its owners primarily with its beautiful, elegant-sporty look and precise workmanship.
The new DS-7 Chrono Auto model is inspired by padel, a popular and developing sport that Certina has supported for many years. The new model from the Swiss watch manufacturer celebrates this action sport with a range of details. The striking dial has a grid structure resembling the net on a padel court, and a modern automatic movement with a silicon balance spring that can easily handle even the fastest matches.
The Certina C043.427.11.041.00 watch from the DS-7 model line features a date display at the 6 o'clock position. The watch offers a useful chronograph function with the option of measuring up to 30 minutes. The detailed blue dial is protected by a sapphire crystal that is resistant to any scratching. Thanks to the anti-reflective coating, reading the time will not be a problem even in direct sunlight. On the bezel around the crystal, there is a tachymeter scale, which is used to measure speed over 1 kilometre.
The watch case is made of stainless steel and is held on the wrist by a strap made of the same material. The model has water resistance 100M - suitable for normal bathing and swimming. The hands and indices on the dial are equipped with Super-LumiNova® luminescence, so you do not have to worry that the dial will not be easy to read in poorer visibility conditions.
The watch is powered by the Swiss mechanical movement with automatic winding ETA A05.231, which is based on the Valjoux 7753 movement. The power reserve of the movement is up to 68 hours, it operates at a frequency of 4 Hz (28 800 vibrations per hour) and has 29 jewels. The movement features hacking and the option of manual winding.
Like all Certina watches, they are equipped with the unique DS technology (Double Security system – double security), which increases durability, shock resistance and the reliability of the watch's water resistance (1. reinforced sapphire crystal, 2. seal on the crown stem, 3. double seal on the crown, 4. special seal of the case back, 5. reinforced case back).

Certina is a well-known Swiss brand operating on the market since 1888. Certina watch technologies include: DS concept, Powermatic 80, Precidrive and others. He has been investing a lot of money in the development of more accurate and durable watches since its inception. As a result, it has gained customers and fans around the world. Certina sponsors motor sports (Sauber F1, Rallye - limited edition dedicated to the WRC and the WRC World Championship) and has established many legends in its history: Muhammad Ali, Colin McRae, Ole Einar Bjørndalen, Mike Doohan and others. Certina currently continues to support classic cross-country skiing and, more recently, the racket sport padel.
An important part of Certina watches is DS Concept technology. "DS Concept" (Double Security) was first introduced in 1959 and has since been a guarantee of exceptional durability and reliability in every Certina watch. In 2025, DS Concept was improved to provide even better protection for selected models. The turtle shell symbolizes robustness and durability – qualities that all Certina watches possess without exception. It is therefore no surprise that the turtle shell has been the brand's distinctive symbol since the 1960s. To this day, the characteristic emblem can be found on almost all Certina watches and also in the brand's logo.
Since 2017, every Certina quartz watch has undergone a running accuracy check and is C.O.S.C. and a chronometer with a maximum deviation of + - 10 seconds per year and + - 0.07 seconds per day.
