Hands-On With The Colorful New Certina DS-X GMT

Meet the DS-X, Certina’s adventure-ready watch collection. Freshly designed for those who travel off-road, off-grid and off-script. It is no throwback or remake, but something completely new. Its rotating bezel with compass rose marking sets it apart, while a fixed GMT bezel and 24-hour hand let wearers track multiple time zones, supported by 200 m water resistance, HeavyDriveTM technology and Super-LumiNova®.
 
 For over 135 years, Certina has crafted watches for those who live with confidence. Fresh, bold and forward-looking by design, the DS-X GMT was made for those shaping their own path. As life is unpredictable but a watch shouldn’t be, Certina integrated a compass-style rotating bezel for assured navigation, alongside the New DS Concept Extreme Shock Resistance, exceeding ISO 1413 standards.
 
 The DS-X GMT features a 41 mm stainless steel case with two bezels: a rotating compass bezel marked with cardinal points and a dual-tone GMT bezel with a 24-hour scale. Engineered for boundary-pushers, it integrates HeavyDriveTM technology, 20 bar (200 m) water resistance, Super-LumiNova® and a protected screw-down crown, ensuring reliability in extreme and everyday conditions.
