Certina Watches
The long
legacy of Certina watches dates back to 1888, when the Grenchen, brothers Adolf
and Alfred Kurth opened their first movement and supplies factory for the
watchmaking industry, with three employees in a workshop annexed to the family
home. The creation of complete timepieces began a few years later, in parallel
to the production of discrete high-quality watch
movements.
In 1906,
the Certina Watch brand name was used for the first time. Adolf and Alfred
choose to call their watches "Grana", short form of "Granacus", the Latin name
for Grenchen. The first wrist-watches appear on the market, for the larger part
ladies' models as men still categorically reject the idea of wearing time on
one's wrist.
Since
then, the company grew tremendously to win many awards, and in 1971, debuted The
Certina Biostar (1)--the world's first watch to display human daily biorhythms.
At a glance, one can follow one's physical, mental and emotional
rhythms.
Today,
the Certina watch company is well known for sporty watches. In 2004 Certina
reasserted itself for their steadfast experience in sporty designs with the
release of its DS 3 1000m. This innovative self-winding diver is a friendly wink
back to the Seventies, sure to please all active gentlemen of this new
Millennium with its contemporary touch. The DS 3 1000m meets the most stringent
requirements for underwater exploration and aquatic sports, with a tested waterfastness to 1000 meters.
