If you’re in the market for a sporty chronograph this summer, look no further than the Certina DS-7 Chrono Padel Edition. This new model from Certina combines precision engineering with a touch of athletic flair, making it an ideal companion for both sports enthusiasts and watch aficionados.
The Collaboration
Certina has teamed up with professional padel player Marta Ortega to create this special edition chronograph. Marta’s achievements and vibrant spirit are celebrated in the design, resulting in a timepiece that captures the essence of the fast-paced and exciting sport of padel.
Technical Details
- Movement: The DS-7 Chrono Padel Edition is powered by a Swiss-made chronograph movement with Precidrive technology. This ensures accurate timekeeping and reliable performance.
- Dial: The black dial is designed for precise sports timing results. It features clear, easy-to-read indexes and a 1/10th of a second display. The green circle framing the dial adds a sporty touch.
- Carbon Fibre Dial: The standout feature of this watch is its carbon fibre dial. Crafted from the same material used in Marta’s padel racket, the dial exudes sportiness and durability.
- Padel Connection: A subtle detail on the dial—a small padel tennis ball at 6 o’clock—further emphasizes the watch’s connection to the sport.
- Luminosity: The hour and minute hands, as well as the indexes, are highlighted with Super-LumiNova, ensuring visibility even in low-light conditions.
- Case: The black PVD-coated stainless steel case complements the dial perfectly.
