Nivada Grenchen Autochron Automatic Orange
Nivada Grenchen has updated its quirky chronograph prototype remake with the new Autochron Automatic Orange. This 1970s-inspired model features a matte black dial with an orange minute ring and beige subdials, retaining the asymmetrical aesthetic of its predecessors while offering a slightly slimmer profile. It is powered by the ETA Valjoux 7750 automatic chronograph movement and is water-resistant to 200 meters.

The case measures 38mm in diameter and 12.75mm in height without the crystal, or 15.20mm including it, making it slightly slimmer than previous iterations.
The case features broad polished bevels and brushed surfaces, topped with a matte black-coated aluminium unidirectional rotating bezel with a double scale in white and a beige luminous pip at zero.
The matte black dial has a grained texture, a black tachymeter scale, a bright orange minute ring, and two recessed snailed subdials in beige, contributing to its distinct 1970s asymmetrical vibe.
Applied markers and central hands are finished with Super-LumiNova, while the central chronograph seconds hand is lacquered in bright orange.
The self-winding ETA Valjoux 7750 movement operates at 28,800vph (4Hz) and includes a date complication at 3 o'clock.
The watch is available on a black racing-style leather strap with perforations or a stainless steel three-link bracelet.
