The History of Certina Men's Watches: A Journey through 130 Years of Swiss Watchmaking Tradition
The history of Certina men's watches began in 1888, when brothers Adolf and Alfred Kurth opened their first watch production in Grenchen, Switzerland. From the very beginning, the focus was on quality and precision. Over the years, Certina men's watches gained international fame for their sports watches, which offered extreme durability and reliability. The introduction of the DS Concept in 1959 marked a milestone in the brand's history, as it set new standards in terms of shock resistance and water resistance. Certina men's watches have accompanied numerous expeditions and research projects, including the successful first ascent of Dhaulagiri in 1960 and the U.S. Navy's Sealab II underwater project in 1965. Today, Certina men's watches continue to represent Swiss quality and sportsmanship, while the brand continuously drives innovation and is committed to environmental protection and sustainability. The history of Certina men's watches is a story of tradition, innovation, and passion for the art of watchmaking – a story that continues to be written.
