Certina DS-8 Moonphase Lady Quartz Stainless Steel / MOP Ref. C045.223.16.131.00

The Certina DS-8 Moonphase Lady C045.223.16.131.00 debuted in 2025 as part of the DS-8 collection, which combines contemporary case proportions with quartz-driven functionality. The watch is housed in a 32mm stainless steel case measuring 8.65mm in thickness, offering a compact profile designed for everyday wear. Water resistance is rated to 100 metres, and the case is fitted with a sapphire crystal featuring anti-reflective treatment on one side. The dial is executed in natural mother-of-pearl, characterised by its iridescent surface and subtle variation in tone. Applied hour markers and hands are arranged for clear legibility, while a moon-phase display is integrated as a defining functional element of the model. A lug width of 16mm frames the case proportions and supports a balanced overall design. Powering the watch is the ETA F05.441 quartz movement, part of Certina’s Precidrive family. The calibre offers enhanced rate stability compared to standard quartz movements and incorporates an end-of-life indicator to signal when the battery requires replacement. The movement is Swiss made and configured to display hours, minutes, and moon-phase indication. Within the DS-8 range, this reference represents a technically straightforward yet visually distinctive execution, combining quartz precision with a decorative dial material and a traditional astronomical complication.
