Nivada Grenchen Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver Chronograph circa 1960s

This era of time pieces has a lot to offer as they appeared to make the all-in-one utility tool: diver, pilot, chronograph. The charm is evident in the brad arrow hands, recessed sub dials and the dash of red 30 minute subdial for timing regattas—extra sauce—the tritium on the dial has aged a perfect golden pie hue and the bi-directional friction bezel, showing 60-minute elapsed time as well as a GMT function is faded from rotation.

Today, Nivada Grenchen designs modern watches to look like this original one but nothing beats the original. Powered by a robust and reliable manual Valjoux movement which we regulated to run approximately in the -1 to -7 sec/day range but no service history.

specifications: 38.5mm case X 20 lug width (strap size) X 13cc with acrylic X 44.6h
