DS Podium GMT Chronometer: Because time knows no borders

Dubai, UAE, September 12, 2017:  Travelling through time? No problem. The new DS Podium GMT Chronometer from CERTINA places the whole wide world on your wrist. This sporty yet elegant watch has been specially designed for adventurers and cosmopolitans who feel at home in more than one time zone. With a separate 24-hour indicator styled like a globe and officially certified chronometric precision, the watch brings life to life – whether you're off on your travels or your other half is on the other side of the world.

The separate 24-hour indicator at 9 o'clock makes it possible to read the time at home and the time in another destination or reference city at a glance. The auxiliary dial has been designed to look like a stylised globe viewed from the North Pole. A bright red hand together with segments in contrasting colours to represent daytime and night-time provide optimum legibility. The timepiece's inner workings boast internationally coveted qualities too: The precision of its Precidrive quartz calibre has been certified by the world-renowned Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC).

With a stainless steel case measuring 41 mm in diameter and a bezel with minute markers, the DS Podium GMT Chronometer offers truly limitless time measuring possibilities. The dial is silver-coloured with a rose gold PVD coating on the hands, index markers and time zone grid; a stylish combination that ensures the wearer will always look elegant and sophisticated, no matter where they are or what the time is. The cosmopolitan timepiece is finished with a brown crocodile-grain strap made of calfskin leather. Models with a stainless steel bracelet are also available (the dial of which can be black, grey or blue), as well as models with the case and bracelet made of titanium. The one thing all models have in common is that they are highly durable, a property which is assured by the DS or Double Security concept – perfect for anyone who likes adventuring through time and space.

The Certina DS Podium GMT Chronometer models are priced at AED 2,475 and AED 2,350, and are available at Rivoli and Hour Choice stores across the UAE.
