A faithful reissue born from the Nivada community, the Super Antarctic 3.6.9 revives a vintage icon with modern upgrades. Featuring a 38mm stainless steel case, sapphire crystal, Soprod P024 automatic movement, and 10 ATM water resistance, it keeps the spirit of the original alive with aged-effect dial and hands, tropical or matte black options, and the signature gold medallion on the caseback.
This Super Antarctic reissue also started on Instagram, following a post of one of our great followers who had the great idea to share his vintage timepiece with us. We shared it in the stories and got so many messages that we knew it was our mission to make it again with the same original spirit and guts. But with modern standards (Sapphire Glass) and Swiss automatic movement (Soprod P024) with screw-down crown offering a 10 ATM water resistance. The Super Antarctic 3.6.9 is a faithful reedition of the vintage one with two options, a matte black dial or a tropical dial, and a Swiss Super luminova, and for more authenticity, we have added an aging effect to the dial and hand. Diameter is contained to 38mm and lugs to lugs to 45mm with a great thickness of 12mm. You will notice the legendary gold medallion on the caseback.
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.
