Nivada Grenchen – Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver & Antarctic
The legendary Swiss watch brand Nivada Grenchen, which has recently re-surged with its full glory, presents its new collections: Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver & Antarctic.
By reviving this historic brand, Guillaume Laidet and Remi Chabrat aim to create contemporary re-editions of the timeless collections made by Nivada Grenchen back in the days such as the mythical Chronomaster Aviator See Diver, the legendary Antarctic, the Depthmaster, Datomaster, Travelmaster and many more …
Presently, the brand offers re-editions of the Chronomaster and the Antarctic models. The samples have been launched at the beginning of 2020. The core idea is to respect, as much as possible, the original designs and stick to authentic specifications while offering “affordable” prices.
The CASD manual winding chronograph costs around 1600€ with leather or tropic. The CASD automatic chronograph costs around 1800€ with leather or tropic strap and the Antarctic 3 hands at 650€ with leather. Adding 200$ for a steel jubilee bracelet.
The collections will be Swiss made of course, with Sellita movements and all the watches assembled in Switzerland.
You can pre-order the new watch models by visiting Nivada Grenchen website. Deliveries planned in December 2020.
