DS-7 Powermatic 80 39mm

Certina · £805

A green-dialled 39mm automatic watch on a steel bracelet.

Worth being NRY provisional

A Powermatic 80 movement in a 39mm steel case with scratch-resistant sapphire and 100m of water resistance, which is the specification sheet most people actually want. Certina are the quiet part of the Swatch Group: the same movements as better-known names, without the marketing attached to the price. At £805 the money is visibly in the watch.

For
Someone who wants Swiss mechanical at 39mm and does not care who has heard of it.
Not for
Anyone buying a watch to be recognised, which this will not be.

Marked provisional: the justification rests on 1 source(s); two independent ones is the bar. We publish it anyway and say so, rather than waiting for evidence that may never arrive.
