Swiss mens watches Certina - an attribute of a real business man who can cope with any troubles. In the article, we will consider how to choose the right accessories and their options in different price categories.

Peculiarities

The Swiss brand of sports watches Certina was created back in 1888. During its existence, the company has undergone many changes, but has remained true to traditions. The quality of watches, their reliability, elegance - all this has remained unchanged. In 1959, DS (double security) technology was developed and patented - double reliability, in which there are 5 elements: O-rings on the winding axis and crown, sealed and durable case back, double sapphire crystal. With the help of this concept, the watch has become even more reliable, durable, waterproof, shockproof.

Today, Certina men's watches are presented in four models:

  • Sport;
  • Heritage;
  • Urban;
  • Aqua.

Selection Tips

When buying a Certina men's watch, there are several parameters to be guided by. The type of mechanism is one of the main selection criteria. Depending on it, the wrist accessory is:

  • quartz;
  • mechanical;
  • electronic.

Quartz movement - this is a reasonable price, accuracy, the watch works without winding, the battery is replaced every 3 years. The electronic type contains quartz, which sends pulses to the microprocessor. These watches have a display, they are equipped with various additional functions. Mechanics - the most durable type of movement, the watch just needs to be wound up on time. Mechanical watch stuffing:

  • gears;
  • springs;
  • stones (artificial / precious).

Depending on the power source, the clock can operate by:

  • electronic / solar batteries;
  • a kinetic rotor that charges the battery;
  • a spring that is mechanically wound.

One of the important characteristics - waterproofness. It is resistant to moisture and dirt. Water resistance classes are measured in atmospheres:

  • Class 1 - there are seals on all internal elements, it is indicated on the case that the watch is waterproof, when washing your hands you need to be careful not to get moisture;
  • Grade 2 (3 atm) - with such a watch it is not scary to get under precipitation, wash your hands clean;
  • Class 3 (5 atm) - if you bought it in salt water, you should rinse the watch with running water and dry it naturally;
  • Grade 4 (10 atm) - without removing such an accessory from your hand, you can swim at a shallow depth with a snorkel;
  • Grade 5 (20 or 30 atm) - created specifically for divers, because such a watch can withstand pressure under water for 3 hours.

Different watches differ coating and glass type. The material for the manufacture of glass can be:

  • plastic;
  • artificially grown sapphire;
  • mineral (ordinary window glass, tempered).

Plastic used in children's, inexpensive watches. The best thing sapphire glass, only a diamond can leave scratches on it. It can withstand any stress. Mineral glass is also a very durable material, akin to sapphire crystal. To prevent the glass from reflecting sunlight, and you can always see the time, the glass is covered with an anti-reflective coating.

Another important characteristic is shockproof... It depends on the type of glass and the material from which the body is made. Shock resistance is needed to protect the internal elements of the watch from breakage. The manufacturer guarantees that after the first shock, the watch will not crumble into bolts and screws. Different models have different way of displaying time. He might be:

  • analog (classic display type, available in mechanical and quartz watches);
  • electronic;
  • combined (analog and electronic);
  • binary.

Often there are additional functions. This could be:

  • chronometer;
  • tachymeter;
  • GPS navigation;
  • alarm;
  • vibration signal;
  • built-in memory;
  • moon calendar;
  • other time zones;
  • compass;
  • display backlight.

When choosing an accessory be guided by the style of clothingwhichever you prefer. Classics with mechanics inside, discreet will suit the business style. For a casual style, variants of an electronic clock with a set of various additional functions are possible. Choosing the right option, count them on hand. A huge alarm clock is not suitable for a thin hand, and a watch with a small diameter will simply be lost on a powerful man's hand.

Wrist models should not dangle - just fasten the strap or bracelet tightly.
