Certina DS-7 Chrono Auto Titanium PVD / Blue Gradient Ref. C043.427.44.041.00

The Certina DS-7 Chrono Auto C043.427.44.041.00 debuted in 2025 as part of the dynamic DS-7 Chrono Auto collection, inspired by Certina’s involvement in the fast-paced world of padel. This version features a 42mm titanium case with a PVD coating, paired with a matching titanium bracelet for a lightweight, modern build. Its dial is finished in dark blue with a gradient effect and an embossed grid structure reminiscent of the nets and rebound walls of a padel court. Power comes from the Swiss-made automatic caliber C07.611, equipped with a silicon balance spring for enhanced resistance to magnetic fields and temperature changes, and offering a 68-hour power reserve. The watch is fitted with a domed anti-reflective sapphire crystal and a transparent sapphire case back. Chronograph functions include a stop-seconds hand, a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock, and a small seconds at 9 o’clock, with a date window at 6 o’clock. A tachymeter scale, protected crown, and classic mushroom pushers complete the sporty design. Water resistance is rated to 100 meters, thanks to Certina’s Double Security (DS) concept.
