    Do I hear the Certina DS1 calling me...or just the idea of it?

    Virtually all my watches are shiny, dateless and seem to be actively interested in being attractive.

    I'm sure that most of what I get in future will be in this vein, but I do find myself wondering how I would get on with a more austere, black-dialled daily-wearer style. The one that I keep coming back to is the Certina DS1. I've no reason to think the dial isn't totally plain, and that choice of date window is frankly bizarre for someone usually so averse to any kind date window and yet and yet.

    I'm all for hearing strong opinions here, either way, either about the watch or my taste, for that matter

    Aside from the aesthetics, it wouldn't be a bad thing if I had one watch which was a bit more robust than my ageing vintage cuties.

    What I've got at the moment:
