ABOUT NIVADA GRENCHEN
Nivada Grenchen was founded in 1926 in Grenchen, Switzerland, and quickly became known for purpose-built watches designed around function, reliability, and everyday use. Over the years, the brand produced now-iconic models such as the Antarctic, Depthmaster, Depthomatic, and Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver. After fading during the quartz crisis, Nivada Grenchen returned with a renewed focus on the heritage designs that made it a favourite among collectors in the first place. Today, it stands as a name that continues to resonate with enthusiasts who appreciate vintage character, honest design, and true tool-watch spirit.
BORN FROM AN ORIGINAL EXPLORATION
The Super Antarctic is a modern evolution of Nivada’s iconic 1950 Antarctic collection — renowned for accompanying the U.S. Navy’s Deep Freeze I expedition to the South Pole (1955–56). Praised for its reliability in extreme conditions, the original inspired today’s Super Antarctic, which preserves the clean 1950s lines and features the 1957 International Geophysical Medallion engraved on its caseback
