Inspired by the original Nivada Antarctic collection from the 1950s, the new Nivada Grenchen Super Antarctica 3.6.9 watch duo offers a unique, innovative spin on the instant classic. Used by the American Navy’s Deep Freeze 1 Task Force between 1955 and 1956, the original Nivada Antarctic watch was robust and durable, able to withstand the most trying conditions. Today’s reinterpretation promises outstanding performance with a stylish take that watch enthusiasts will undoubtedly use for their go-to, everyday watch.
Powered by the Swiss-made Soprod P024 movement, the Nivada Grenchen Super Antarctic 3.6.9 watch boasts an incredible 38-hour power reserve. Honoring Swiss-made construction and craftsmanship, the Nivada Grenchen Super Antarctic 3.6.9 watch exceeds quality standards in any weather conditions. Water-resistant to 100 meters and durable enough to withstand freezing temperatures, this beautiful new watch measures 38mm and is 12mm thick. The timepiece is made of stainless steel and has a leather or ’beads of rice’ steel bracelet option. The face is made of durable and scratch-resistant sapphire glass, while the dial is adorned with Super-LumiNova to improve legibility in any lighting condition.
The Nivada Grenchen Super Antarctic 3.6.9 comes in two distinct styles, with the first production batch available in limited numbers for collectors. Choose between a matte black or tropical dial that has undergone an aging effect to give it a vintage look. The watch is priced at $750 for the leather strap or $950 for the metal strap.
