DS Rookie Quartz Chronograph
The new Certina DS Rookie quartz chronograph watch is the one developed from the old Certina DS Action chrono introduced early last year. This one looks nice with the small case. And it looks more beautiful than the old one.
Featuring the same dial layout and virtually the same design language, the watch is also powered by the same standard-issue Swiss made ETA G10.211 quartz chronograph movement.
The G10.211 caliber is built on 6 jewels and offers a rather standard set of functions, those including analogue hours and minutes indication, as well as a small jumping second as 6 o'clock; small date at 4 o'clock and chronograph counters for 1/10 second, 60 seconds and 30 minutes with "add" and "split" functions.
As usual, it is operated with a pair of PVD-treated push-pieces located at 2 and 4 o'clock and partly protected from occasional bumps and scratches with a set of nice-looking guards that also protect the crown.
Being 29.8 mm in diameter and 5.12 mm thick, the movement is rather large, so Certina has a fairly good excuse to put it in a mid-sized 40 mm stainless steel body.
This timepiece is stylish. And the price tag of €450 is just suitable for people who enjoy collecting luxury watches. It is a great timepiece for both wearing and collecting.
