The Swiss watch brand Certina - "Swiss time maker 1888" - stands for high quality combined with modern technology and a unique watch design that harmoniously combines sport and elegance. Only high-quality materials and the Certina Double Security Concept (DS+), which guarantees water resistance and shock resistance, are used: it protects the watches with an extra-strong sapphire crystal and a reinforced case back.
We are an authorised specialist and online retailer of the Certina brand, which has decisive advantages for you as a customer in terms of security, warranty and after-sales service when purchasing online.
- Great watch with unusual combination of analogue and digital indicators. Unprecedented elegance and quality in this price range.
- I am delighted to become an owner of this refined timepiece. It is already second Certina in my collection and - as always - it fully it lives up to the expectations. A combination of plain analogue, yet very elegant, indicators and modest LCD with electronic controls makes this a truly unique piece with various built-in functionalities. In particular, I value the dual time zone, which is controlled by the buttons on the side of the case. In addition, DS Multi-8 offers 2 alarms, timer and advanced stop-watch features - quite a remarkable set of useful functions. Paired with the elegant stock bracelet or one of the aftermarket leather straps, DS Multi-8 is a really elegant, complex and at the same time budget-friendly timepiece. (Posted on 04.12.2017)
- Excellent Watch.
-
I am a professional who needs a watch with GMT and local time, I have tried different brands and I came to realize that I missed out on a very functional watch after buying the Certina DS Multi-8
If you need a good looking functional watch I recommend this watch for you. (Posted on 10.02.2025) - James Bond would be jealous! (Translated automatically with Google™ View original text)
- A watch. A Swiss watch. From a traditional company. But what is that? Analogue and digital? Is that allowed? Is it nice? Is it necessary? Good questions! When the watch with its optimally sized stainless steel strap was extremely comfortable around my arm, any doubts were definitely gone, because with this watch Certina has managed to create a really good combination of "old" and "modern"! The dial is wonderfully tidy and perfectly legible thanks to the strong contrast between the sandblasted aluminium hands and indices and the black dial. The luminous material on the indices and hands enables very good legibility even in the dark. (A small detail should be mentioned here: It is NON-radioactive luminous material, which charges when exposed to light and loses brightness over time, this is completely normal. However, it glows quite brightly and for a long time). The LC display is simply the perfect size. It was chosen so that no indices had to be "cut". Certina has also been careful here and chosen the "white on black" principle, which means that the display is well integrated into the elegant dial, and almost disappears depending on the distance and viewing angle. If the basic readability is not guaranteed for whatever reason, you simply hold down the middle button briefly, which will illuminate the light thanks to a very powerful background lighting. The middle button is used to navigate through the menu. It is quite nice that you don't always have to press from A to B through the menu, but can also navigate backwards from B to A by double pressing. This is conceivable insofar as the menu contains a whole 10 points. These are quickly understood, by the way, otherwise the operating instructions will help (which should be consulted at least briefly...). For me, however, one small detail was very decisive for the purchase: the small vibration motor (which you have to find in normal watches!). It is simply practical to be able to set a silent alarm or timer and the watch will vibrate pulsatingly at the appropriate time. In my opinion, the motor could have had a bit more "oomph". But that probably wouldn't have been good for the battery... So, who do I recommend the watch to? Actually, pretty much everyone! I would describe this watch as "elegant", but I certainly wouldn't deny its sportiness! For athletes who rely on short-term measurements, an analogue chronograph might be more pleasant and a bit more intuitive to read. For all other interested parties, I can give an unreserved purchase recommendation! Whether you're a "young snob", "middle-aged man", "nerd with style", "gentleman" or "whoever". And now you know why James Bond would be jealous :-) A watch. A Swiss watch. From a traditional company. But what is that? Analogue and digital? Is that allowed? -> Yes, you can! And you should! Certina did it... Thankfully! Oh yes, to the women who want to show men that this watch looks great on them too: please don't. We men want to wear nice jewelry sometimes too ;-) (Posted on 18.01.2018)
- Classic meets modern (Translated automatically with Google™ View original text)
- Very high-quality watch that feels great on the wrist! The elegant leather strap with a beautifully engraved, easily adjustable folding clasp and white decorative stitching in a crocodile look naturally contributes to the smooth feel-good effect. The first impression of this Certina is positively ambiguous: The DS Multi 8 conveys a classic, elegant and timeless design on a clearly legible, analogue dial. The contrast of the Lumina hands fits perfectly into the chosen composition of white and black in terms of colour in favour of readability. At second glance, the three pushers and the optimally large display indicate the multifunctionality of a lavishly equipped chronograph. The settings are easy and intuitive to operate. Unfortunately, there are no instructions in the supplied leather box. However, Certina offers a digital version on the website as a PDF for download. This is helpful for getting to know the digital range of functions for the first time. The Multi-8 flies in two time zones. The hands move quickly and precisely to the desired time in the respective time zone without any frills. My favorite parameters are shown on the display by pressing the top button, alternating between the digital date in day, month and seconds, the day of the week with the calendar week, or nothing at all, depending on the personalization of the settings. In addition, two alarm options, a lap counter for up to 20 saved (intermediate) times and a countdown timer and of course the simple stopwatch help me to cover my different everyday needs. Of course, the soft blue lighting of the display, the various acoustic settings and a vibration option round off the versatile DS Multi - 8 efficiently and stylishly. Christian Uhrenschmuck delivers quickly and reliably. When I ask for an instruction manual, the customer service responds promptly and friendly. I am still waiting for a response from Certina. Conclusion: The Multi - 8 is a classic-looking yet innovative men's watch from the traditional Certina company at a decent price for a wide range of requirements. It combines timelessness and value with technology and simplicity. I recommend this noble piece to the urban man with discreet and quiet demands, the young adventurer and globetrotter with style or the everyday wearer who enjoys tradition and functionality in equal measure.

- Certina DS Multi-8 (Titan) (Translated automatically with Google™ View original text)
- I like analog-digital dual-display watches. For the past few years I have been wearing the cheaper Japanese models (Casio LCW- / WVA-) on my wrist. Anyone who is interested in this type of watch knows them. For a few weeks now I have been able to test my new Swiss made Certina DS Multi-8 (C020.419.44.087.00 titanium bracelet). This has been manufactured since around 2012 and is a few years old in terms of technology. Positive: - Despite its size, the watch is surprisingly comfortable to wear. In hot weather or when sleeping, the watch is not annoying. Neither are the three crown buttons. - The time is very easy to read. - The dial is anthracite-dark gray. It shimmers beautifully when caught in light. - The bracelet is high quality, the middle areas are polished, matt on the outside. The chain links are pleasantly short. - The digital display looks blue and beautifully pixelated retro. - Digital date format: The date is displayed perfectly. Pattern: "Sun. 18.08.19" - The two-zone times allow the analogue watch hands to be set automatically. - No second hand noise. 100% quiet. Negative: - Certina no longer includes physical operating instructions in the watch box. You have to download a PDF online. - The bracelet folding clasp can only be adjusted in length with watch tools (three adjustable holes). I would have welcomed easier manual fine-tuning of the size like on a diver. - The watch is battery-powered, not solar-powered. - The button for the digital lighting always has to be pressed for 2 seconds. That seems sooo long. Dimensions: - Diameter of dial including edge and crown: 45 mm - Case height: 13 mm - Weight: 94 grams including bracelet Conclusion: The DS Multi-8 has currently replaced my Casios. The large Certina looks nicer on my large wrist. I find the digital controls a bit more intuitive and the buttons are also a good size. In terms of price, I'm glad I didn't pay the full list price, which is almost twice the price of a Casio. When the battery runs out or I long for an accurate radio-controlled watch, I'll wear my Casios again from time to time. The Certina DS Multi-8 is fun, I can recommend it to everyone.

- CERTINA DS Multi-8 (Translated automatically with Google™ View original text)
- CERTINA watches stand for quality and sporty robustness. My last CERTINA watch, DS-Nautik, has completed its 13th year of service on my wrist with flying colors. Now I am sending it off into well-earned retirement with an excellent reference. I am now 13 years older. The position on my wrist has been re-advertised. Sporty, robust are still part of the job profile. In addition, pleasant personal contact and an elegant appearance have been added. The position was given to the CERTINA DS Multi-8 Titan. The hopes and expectations for the new addition to my wrist are high. But when the new employee arrives on the first day of work, a problem arises right from the start. It is the poor user manual. The time is set via the digital display by pressing and not by pulling out to position 3 and turning the crown as is usual with chronographs. Consulting Google solved the small problem. For some it is simply a watch, for others it is a philosophy. Time can be many things. Now a brief summary of the impression. The CERTINA DS Multi-8 Titan feels comfortable on the wrist and is easy to wear despite its size. It's titanium, after all. The large numbers and the sleek surface make it easy to read the time. A subtle appearance that doesn't sell itself for less than it's worth. And thanks to the 50% discount, it's a real bargain without giving you the feeling of having paid too much. CERTINA DS Multi-8 Titan and I, the spark of enthusiasm has been ignited. (Posted on 11.07.2022)
- A practical watch, easy to read day and night (Translated automatically with Google™ View original text)
- The Multi-8 in the version with a grey/black dial and a titanium case and strap is comfortable to wear because, despite its size, it is not as heavy as a stainless steel watch. The dial is easy to read, both day and night. There are no unnecessary things on it, not even a second hand, which is usually superfluous. The digital display is hardly noticeable, but the day of the week and the date, for example, are easy to read; if not, you can make them visible by pressing the main button with light. The other functions, if you need them, are easy to learn if you have the instructions!!! These are not included with the watch, or rather the ones included are useless. I had to have the seller send them to me because they are not available on the Certina website either. The design of the watch, both the case with a mixture of polished and matte titanium, and the watch strap in the same style, are very pleasing, almost a piece of jewelry. The sapphire crystal protects the watch from scratches and allows an unobstructed view of the dial. I am very happy with my purchase and the prompt service from Christian Watches and Jewelry! (Posted on 06.07.2020)
- Great watch and great service (Translated automatically with Google™ View original text)
- Despite the delivery bottleneck, the watch was delivered surprisingly quickly. The price-performance ratio is extremely good in this case (promotion). The watch itself is excellent, as is usual for Certina. I have never managed to scratch the glass on a Certina. Despite its size and range of functions, it is very light and comfortable to wear thanks to the titanium case and bracelet. The dial and digital display are easy to read, even if you forget your glasses. The functions meet all needs. The second time zone is particularly practical for me, as I often communicate with people in a different time zone. (Posted on 16.01.2020)
- A great watch from Certina (Translated automatically with Google™ View original text)
- A colleague of mine who works at Swiss wears this watch and is particularly impressed by the easy switching between time zones. Since I also like the look of this watch, I didn't have to think twice about the great price. Important: CERTINA offers great customer service, which is unfortunately no longer a given these days. The Multi 8 is very special, but absolutely suitable for everyday use. Easy to use and easy to read. The workmanship is, in my humble opinion, one of the best in this price range. Thank you for this great watch! (Posted on 28.05.2018)
- Very nice watch (Translated automatically with Google™ View original text)
- A very beautiful watch which impresses with its simplicity but still has outstanding technology inside. If you like wearing simple, quality watches, this is the perfect choice. Not as technically overloaded as a Tissot T-Touch, but still has all the functions you need in everyday life. In general, a beautiful and cleanly crafted watch, as you would expect from Certina.

What does the warranty cover?
A watch's warranty generally covers manufacturing and material defects, including the movement, hands, dial, crown and sometimes the case.
