The Nivada Grenchen Antarctic watch was inspired by the spirit of mid-20th-century exploration, specifically designed for harsh and extreme environments. Its creation was closely tied to the U.S. Navy’s Operation Deep Freeze in 1955–56, a mission to establish permanent research bases in Antarctica during the International Geophysical Year. Nivada supplied the Antarctic model to expedition members, and the watch was built to endure freezing temperatures, shocks, magnetism, and moisture—making it a true tool watch for scientists and explorers. Its design emphasized durability, simplicity, and legibility, embodying the rugged elegance of a watch made for the world’s most unforgiving continent.

Nivada Grenchen Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver Watch Repair >
The Nivada Grenchen Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver was inspired by the need for a truly versatile tool watch that could serve across multiple disciplines—aviation, diving, and everyday wear—during the golden era of mechanical sports watches in the 1960s. Its design combined key elements from chronographs, dive watches, and pilot watches into one compact, robust timepiece. With a tachymeter scale for speed, a rotating bezel for elapsed time underwater, and a clean dial for quick legibility in the cockpit, it was conceived as a do-it-all instrument for professionals and adventurers alike. The Chronomaster’s multifunctional spirit, paired with Swiss mechanical precision, made it a cult classic among collectors and a standout of Nivada’s innovative legacy.

Nivada Grenchen Chronosport and Chronoking Watch Repair >
The Chronosport and Chronoking watches were inspired by rare 1970s Nivada prototypes that never reached full production until rediscovered by the brand’s revival team. The Chronosport revives a distinct 1970s racing-style chronograph—with a 38mm case, textured Singer-inspired dial, tachymeter, and Valjoux movement—bringing mid-century motorsport flair into modern form. Meanwhile, the Chronoking meca‑quartz updates its 1970s ancestor with a hybrid Seiko VK meca‑quartz movement and vintage-style segmented sub-dials, offering mechanical chronograph feel at an accessible price while paying tribute to its retro roots.

Nivada Grenchen Depthmaster Watch Repair >
The Nivada Grenchen Depthmaster was born in the 1960s as an ambitious tool watch designed for serious divers and underwater adventurers. It was specifically engineered to endure extreme conditions, featuring an innovative 39 mm cushion-shaped case rated to an astonishing 1,000 meters of water resistance—remarkable for its time—and a distinctive “Pac‑Man” dial design with art-deco markers that became its signature look. With robust construction, unique styling, and functionality tailored to the demands of deep-sea environments, the Depthmaster combined practicality and flair, earning its place as one of Nivada’s most daring and iconic dive watches.

Nivada Grenchen F77 Watch Repair >
The Nivada Grenchen F77 was inspired by the integrated steel sports watch designs of the late 1970s, a period defined by bold geometric cases and seamless bracelet integration. Originally released in 1977, the F77 featured an angular octagonal bezel with visible screws, a finely textured “basket weave” dial, and a sleek stainless-steel case and bracelet that echoed the era’s fascination with form-meets-function aesthetics. The modern reissue pays tribute to that vintage model, maintaining its compact 37 mm size while refining the details for contemporary tastes, offering stone-effect dials and automatic Swiss movements that blend retro sportiness with modern elegance.

Heartfelt Testimonials on Watch Repair
Jane Murray ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I found Times Ticking on the internet. The last time I had a watch repaired locally it cost more than the watch did new. I got it back just like new 2 weeks later and 2,000 miles away. HIGHLY recommended. Times Ticking was prompt, inexpensive, and even phoned when they got my watch and told me in advance what it would cost to repair.
Keith Kerney ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Their service was grade A!!! They're quick and professional; they always kept me updated with status of my watches. Their work is flawless which they stand behind, to me most importantly. They speak to you as if you're an old friend asking for help; in which they're always happy to do. Times Ticking; a place where you can ask an old friend for help.
Matthew Emory ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I cannot speak to the local facilities or sales staff. I am an internet customer who took a chance and sent my prized Accutron watch across the country to folks I do not know and have never met. This was a big decision which took several weeks to discern. I am thrilled with my decision and am planning to send my Dad’s watch in for repair. The difference? This time there is no hesitation whatsoever.
Ellen Hymes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I was thrilled that they were able to repair and clean up a watch that I had inherited from my mother. It looks great and works great. The service was fast. The person who called me about the watch was very friendly and seemed grateful for my business. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will use them again if the need arises. So refreshing to receive such good customer service these days!
Peter K ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I highly recommend Times Ticking for watch repair. Jesse & crew know their stuff and even take the time to talk with you. They communicate very friendly/professionally and most of all the prices are more than fair for such craftsmen skills! My opinion: They are like the American Restoration of watches.

HISTORY OF NIVADA GRENCHEN
The Legacy of Nivada Grenchen: A History of Precision, Style and Innovation
Nivada Grenchen is a Swiss watch brand with origins dating back to 1879 and officially established as Wüllimann Schneider Nivada S.A. in 1926 in the town of Grenchen, Switzerland. It gained prominence in the mid-20th century for its rugged and reliable tool watches, including the Antarctic, famously worn by the U.S. Navy during Operation Deep Freeze in the 1950s, and the Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver, a versatile chronograph appreciated by adventurers and collectors alike. Like many Swiss brands, Nivada struggled during the quartz crisis of the 1970s and faded from prominence, with some models continuing under names like Croton Nivada Grenchen in the U.S.
The brand was successfully revived in 2018 by watch enthusiast Guillaume Laidet and businessman Rémi Chabrat, who reintroduced reissues of its vintage classics while maintaining the design heritage and Swiss craftsmanship that made Nivada a cult favorite.
