The first F77 Chrono Mecaquartz. Ever. The F77 has firmly earned its place in our modern collection, making this chronograph evolution both natural and true to our chronograph DNA, not a re-edition, but a brand-new creation. The F77 Chrono Mecaquartz Grey Woven Dial pairs a textured anthracite woven dial with the compact 38 mm F77 MKII case with riveted bezel and VK64 mecaquartz hybrid chronograph movement for a versatile, everyday sport watch with vintage DNA.
And now, the first F77 Chrono Mecaquartz. Ever. The F77 has firmly earned its place in our modern collection, so evolving it into a chronograph felt both natural and true to our chronograph DNA. Because the F77 never existed as a Chrono Mecaquartz before, this is not a re-edition, it’s a brand-new creation. With its understated anthracite tone, the F77 Chrono Mecaquartz Grey Woven Dial offers a more monochrome take on the F77 signature texture. The woven pattern gives depth and character to the dial, while the two chronograph subdials, applied indexes and baton hands keep legibility clear and purposeful. The 38 mm 316L stainless-steel case features brushed and polished surfaces, the recognizable bezel rivets and ergonomic, downward-sloping lugs that hug the wrist. Powered by the VK64 mecaquartz movement, this F77 combines quartz accuracy with a mechanical chronograph module, delivering a smooth-sweeping central chronograph hand and crisp pusher feel, with approximately three years of battery life. A double-domed sapphire crystal, solid screw-down caseback and 10 ATM water resistance reinforce its everyday capability. Offered on an integrated steel bracelet, with the option of Velcro canvas or rubber straps, this reference moves easily from office to weekend without losing the F77’s original 1977 spirit.
Founded in 1926 in Grenchen, Switzerland, Nivada Grenchen built its reputation on robust tool watches designed for adventure. The brand became particularly renowned in the 1950s and 1960s, producing versatile, purpose driven timepieces such as the Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver, the Antarctic, and the Depthmaster. These watches combined technical capability with distinctive mid century styling, earning a loyal following among pilots, divers, and explorers. After a period of dormancy, Nivada Grenchen was successfully revived, reintroducing faithful reissues that capture the spirit of its heritage while appealing to modern enthusiasts seeking vintage character with contemporary reliability.
