  • Certina surprised the watchworld when they announced the new 38 mm version of their popular DS Action Diver only normally available in 41 and 43.5 mm versions. They also introduced two versions in steel and gold. In this video I give you the full review of the new 2021 black and gold DS Action diver.

    Actually here in Switzerland we prefer Certina over Longines, just like we prefer Omega over Rolex. Why pay more money when you get better specs,better quality and better customer service for less?
    As for the bezel and the diver extension, why do people make a fuss when Rolex’s watches had the same kind of diver extension and an aluminium bezel for most of its history? People still spent thousands buying them….
    This is a tool watch, and as such has all the criteria’s: affordable, ISO certified to 30 bars, etc.
    But again, most people doing the reviews aren’t even divers nor are they going to wear it underwater or use it for its purpose…

    I enjoy your reviews, particularly since there isn't much of Certina in the US. I bought the DS-1 Himalaya last year and your review on that watch helped with my decision. I'm loving the watch and I'm impressed with the watch one gets particularly for the price. I was considering getting the DS Action Diver, but now with this 38mm version I'm torn. I always though the 43mm version might be too big, but like it's style. The new 38mm version looks great - except the date. I've got time to decide. Of course I might get neither and get the Sinn 556i b instead. Keep up the great content.

    Just WOW!!! Perfect diver watch with great design and size from Cerina! I wish they will make the same watches with their quartz chronometer movement (and titanium version too)! I will buy that watch for sure! Please stop making that old style polished bezels with "waves". Instead make divers with this classic diver bezels! They are awesome!

    I’m wearing my back on black and it’s the permanent daily diver. Love this thing, but if they ever come out with a version 2 they need to give this thing female endlinks the male ones currently stick out way too much. Also wouldn’t mind 39mm as well but be happiest with female endlinks.

    Is it just me or does it look like it wears really big for a 38mm diver? Looks like it’s 40-41mm. Looks huge compared to say a 38mm Seiko SKX013. I’d like to see a photo of the two beside each other for comparison.

    Har selv et Certina DS action Sea Turtle Conservancy limited edtion diver´s (I skildpadde boks - udgået model, tror jeg). Virkelig et fedt og solidt ur :-) Sammenlignet med mit Oris 65 diver - synes jeg faktisk Certina virker mere robust!? Specielt når jeg trækker kronen ud for at indstille tiden - virker Certina mere solidt... Helt klart et ur, der overrasker positivt!
