Certina gives its compact DS Action Diver a black-and-orange padel edge

Certina’s C048.807.33.051.01 brings black-and-orange padel-inspired graphics to the compact DS Action Diver 38mm. The steel case, bracelet and ceramic timing bezel receive a black PVD finish, while orange details sharpen the otherwise dark dial. A second rubber strap is included, widening the watch’s use beyond the bracelet and reinforcing the deliberately sporty brief.

The 38mm case is 13.22mm thick and meets ISO 6425:2018 requirements with 300 metres of water resistance. Sapphire crystal protects the dial, and the automatic Powermatic 80.611 adds an 80-hour reserve and a Nivachron balance spring. Certina lists the watch at CHF 865, below €1,000 at the official European positioning. The compact dimensions distinguish it from many full-size professional divers.
