About Certina Brand
In 1888 The brothers Adolf and Alfred Kurth set up their own watch production facility in the Swiss town of Grenchen. In 1906 the Kurth brothers introduce a brand name for their watches: "Grana", short for "Granacus", the Latin name of Grenchen.
During the 1930s, the company increasingly uses the brand name Certina, for a good reason: it is easy to pronounce in all languages and is based on the Latin word "certus", which means "sure".
Today Certina watches are well-known for their precision, reliability and sporty character. The sport-watch brand has built itself a solid international reputation on quality Swiss workmanship, over its 130-year history.
