The 100-Year-Old Swiss Watch Brand You Need to Buy Right Now! (Nivada Grenchen) Are you looking to start your watch collecting journey with a true mechanical powerhouse that won't break the bank? Live from the Couture Show in Las Vegas, WatchDNA host Thomas sits down with Tristan from Nivada Grenchen to explore the massive 100th-anniversary celebration of this iconic heritage brand. Founded in 1926, Nivada Grenchen has spent a century crafting high-quality, vintage-inspired, affordable Swiss watches. After dominating the 1960s and 70s tool watch markets, the brand went bankrupt during the quartz crisis, only to be spectacularly resurrected in 2020. We take an exclusive hands-on look at the core pillars driving Nivada Grenchen's modern success: • The Chronomaster: Relaunched from the original 1963 design, this 38mm multi-tool chronograph features 200 meters of water resistance, a premium Sellita Swiss movement, and a unique interchangeable bezel system allowing for easy custom styling. • The Antarctic Collection: Originally launched in 1953, this line accounts for 25% of the brand's business. We reveal their special 100-year anniversary edition featuring a highly playful, mechanical penguin animation complication powered by a Soprod movement. • The F77 Integrated Bracelet Watch: A stunning 1977 reissue brought back to life after the team literally found a vintage model on an organic Instagram post, bought it back from a client, and put it into production. Tristan drops major insider teasers for the remainder of the anniversary year, including high-end La Joux-Perret movement upgrades coming to the F77 and Super Antarctic lines, exotic stone dials for the 38mm Chronomaster, and an elegant vintage women's reissue from the 1960s priced under $1,000! Learn how their streamlined supply chain keeps Swiss-made luxury accessible between $500 and $2,500.
