Certina Brand Manager

Since 1888, Certina has embodied precision you can trust. Founded in Grenchen, Switzerland, the brand has built its reputation on reliability, robustness and Swiss Made craftsmanship. Every Certina watch is engineered to withstand the challenges of everyday life and beyond. At the heart of this commitment lies the legendary DS (Double Security) Concept, introduced in 1959. This groundbreaking innovation redefined standards of shock and water resistance, making Certina a benchmark for durability and dependability. Continuously refined over the decades, the concept reached a new milestone in 2025 with the introduction of the DS Concept Extreme Shock Resistance, further enhancing the resilience of the DS Action collection. For more than 135 years, Certina has proven its reliability from mountain summits to the ocean depths, and through every challenge in between. Built for certainty and crafted for life, every Certina watch is a trusted companion you can always count on. Since 2021, Certina has also been actively involved in the world of padel and remains closely connected to cross‑country skiing as Official Timekeeper of the FIS Cross‑Country World Cup and Ski Classics. Ambassadors such as Ebba Andersson perfectly reflect the brand's values of endurance, precision and performance. Sea turtles have been a powerful symbol of Certina's values of resilience and endurance since 1959 - the year both the DS Concept and the Sea Turtle Conservancy (STC) were founded. Through its support of the Tour de Turtles project, the brand actively contributes to marine conservation and helps raise awareness about the importance of protecting our oceans.
