The Certina DS Action Chrono C048.417.11.051.00 is a robust quartz chronograph launched in 2026, designed to perform well in various conditions. This watch features a case made from 316L stainless steel that measures 42.00 mm in diameter and has a height of 13.78 mm. The lug width of 21.00 mm pairs seamlessly with its steel bezel, which is complemented by an aluminum insert and marked with luminous Super-LumiNova indications for readability in low light.

Protected by a sapphire crystal treated to minimize glare from one side, the watch boasts impressive water resistance of up to 300 metres. Certina's innovative DS Concept reinforces its durability through five key components, including a robust crown gasket and double O-ring seals. The striking black dial is adorned with luminous markers that enhance visibility, while the chronograph function caters for precise timing with 1/10th second and 1/100th second measurements. A battery end-of-life indicator adds convenience. Driven by the quartz calibre ETA G10.212 with Precidrive technology, it includes central hour, minute, and second hands alongside its chronograph capabilities. The timepiece is completed with a stainless steel bracelet featuring a quick-release mechanism and a matching buckle, giving it a substantial weight of around 195 grams.
