My young collection was missing a sporty type watch, capable of handling it without blowing my budget! And it was Certina again who hooked me, for the fourth time, and still at Christian's! This "ACTION Powermatic 80", with blue dial and padded brown leather strap, is superbly sporty and imposing, without overwhelming the wrist. It must weigh around 100g. and looks really sturdy. And frankly the price displayed is very attractive, incredibly light for a watch of this quality. What particularly made me decide for this purchase: - A superb case measuring 41 mm in diameter by 12 mm thick, mixing “polished chrome” and “brushed” (satin effect) finishes. - Adequate protection of the crown - A transparent back, but small in diameter, around 24 mm (to withstand the pressure at 200 m!? :-) Note that once is not customary at this price, this back is made of scratch-resistant sapphire glass! - A very beautiful quality leather strap, thick and resistant, with a folding clasp: We like or don't like this system, but it is well made and easy to adjust and comfortable. - The superb medium blue, slightly satin dial, with changing “sun” type effects. The indexes and hands, of respectable size without being "heavy", are very visible and luminous at night thanks to the Super-LumiNova coating. The seconds indexes, subdivided into quarter-seconds, add to the beauty of this watch and its sporty appearance. - The well-proportioned "Day - Date" windows at 3 o'clock complete this magnificent dial. - The very well designed horns add to the sporty and robust appearance of this beautiful watch. In fact, given its totally attractive price, I can't find any fault with it. The design, construction, finishing, design, for me, it's just great! A purchase with which I am very satisfied. Just as I appreciate the Christian house for its availability, its attentiveness, its impeccable service, as well as the pleasant, complete and easy to navigate website. I quickly became a loyal fan of this house. See you soon, no doubt...
Light weight, robust, beautiful, rare find
The item had been replaced with the newer model but this one is more beautiful and elegant. Darker red color is more elegant and more mysterious in appearance. I highly recommended it at the sale price, this version has more painted pieces in this darker red, even the case back.
Very beautiful, elegant watch. The matte bracelet gives it a classy and timeless look. Very modern. The watch was delivered the very next day, wrapped as a beautiful gift as requested. My daughter was delighted.
Top tissot couturier lady, top packaging, top customer service! Thank you, would buy again.?
