Certina DS PH200M Powermatic 80 (Ref. C036.407.11.050.01)

The Certina DS PH200M Powermatic 80 is a striking heritage-inspired dive watch that combines the character of Certina’s historic diving instruments with modern Swiss watchmaking technology. Inspired by the brand’s diving watches of the late 1960s, this model features a distinctive black dial, domed black ceramic bezel, and stainless steel Milanese mesh bracelet, giving it a vintage aesthetic while retaining the durability expected from a contemporary sports watch. This pre-owned example is in pristine condition, presenting beautifully with virtually no signs of wear. The 42.8mm stainless steel case is paired with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and Certina’s renowned DS (Double Security) Concept, providing enhanced protection against water, shocks, dust, and the demands of everyday use. At the heart of the watch is the Powermatic 80.611 automatic movement, offering an impressive 80-hour power reserve. The movement incorporates a Nivachron™ balance spring, providing increased resistance to magnetic fields and helping maintain reliable performance in everyday conditions. An exhibition caseback provides a view of the Swiss automatic movement. With 200 meters of water resistance, a rotating ceramic bezel, excellent Super-LumiNova visibility, and a comfortable Milanese mesh bracelet, the DS PH200M successfully combines vintage diving character with the convenience and performance of a modern Swiss automatic watch.
