There's only one word for this watch—gorgeous. The dial is so symmetrical—darn near perfect. I consider this the ideal alternative to the explorer without looking like a homage/ripoff. Definitely an affordable GADA. I know I'm going to regret selling it, but I'm just ready for something different (oh, the cruelty of this hobby...). I purchased it directly from Nivada for $835 June of this year (including the extra strap—I wanted both black and brown), and have mained it ever since. It shows hairlines throughout the polished bezel but is otherwise clean. The swiss movement winds buttery smooth and runs very well. The leather straps are supremely comfortable. A great all-rounder...and one I expect I'll probably end up re-purchasing one day :) Specs: [https://nivadagrenchenofficial.com/collections/super-antarctic/products/super-antarctic-91412b?variant=39725962461272](https://nivadagrenchenofficial.com/collections/super-antarctic/products/super-antarctic-91412b?variant=39725962461272) Additional Photos: [https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPlXF8ecc-m-T\_EXspfpjOT7edcIpUlp4TrI1BfJ4zGx2m0M3fiMygxlxohhErRAw?key=MmJ2LWRIUUdtZ3lmelBPMFh5OUhIZFJGV01rY0l3](https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPlXF8ecc-m-T_EXspfpjOT7edcIpUlp4TrI1BfJ4zGx2m0M3fiMygxlxohhErRAw?key=MmJ2LWRIUUdtZ3lmelBPMFh5OUhIZFJGV01rY0l3) **Price: $575 OBO (CONUS shipping included)**

Nivada is a Swiss watch company. It was founded in 1879 in the town of Grenchen, Switzerland. Nivada was a manufacturer of Swiss watches.

Nivada was founded as early as 1879, in 1887, or as late as 1926 in Grenchen, Switzerland. The company gained traction after World War II, producing a series of successful watches before succumbing to the quartz crisis.

In 1926, Nivada was operational in Grenchen as Wüllimann Schneider Nivada S.A. The company relied on proven movements from ETA and Phénix S.A., as was typical at the time, and the company was known for quality mass-produced watches. Nivada celebrated its 50th anniversary in 1976, suggesting that the company officially dates to 1926. The company was run by Max Schneider, son of the founder, at that time.

Nivada was prevented from using their name during the 1960s and 1970s due to its phonetic similarity with Movado, so the products were labeled "Nivada Grenchen". In the United States, Croton was formed in 1940 as a distributor for Nivada products, so many were sold under the "Croton Nivada", "Croton Nivada Grenchen", and simply "Croton" names.

In 1979 the Nivada brand was purchased by a Chinese gentleman, Hakui Sito. The watches were manufactured in rural South Korea by children helping to support their families.
