A vintage design, from the 1960s, packed in titanium, saving turtles: here is the Certina DS-2 Turning Bezel Sea Turtle Conservancy. A portion of the proceeds of this watch will go to the Sea Turtle Conservancy, a non-profit organization that has been working for decades to protect sea turtles and their habitats. A cause that Certina is supporting for many years.

The link with the sea comes back in the strap made of #tide ocean material, a recycled raw material made of 100% ocean-bound plastic. Another link to the sea: it’s a diver. The cushion-shaped case from titanium can withstand up to 20 bar, and for sure the unidirectional bezel helps divers to measure their time under water.

The Certina DS-2 Turning Bezel Sea Turtle Conservancy has a power reserve of 80 hours

The sapphire crystal is flat, meaning it’s much thinner than the average DS-2 models, which makes it a little more comfortable for diving and the titanium makes it lighter. The matt black dial is combined with silvery hands and markers filled with super-luminova, the seconds hand is light blue with an SL tip.

Inside this DS-2 Sea Turtle you will find the automatic ETA Powermatic 80.611 movement which provides a power reserve of 80 hours. It features hours, minutes, seconds and date function with a 3-Hz frequency. It can be admired through the transparent case back.
