The revival of the Super Antarctic began on Instagram when one of Nivada Grenchen's devoted followers shared their vintage timepiece with them. The overwhelming response inspired the brand to recreate it. The objective was to preserve its original character but incorporating modern advancements such as Sapphire Glass and a Swiss automatic movement (Soprod P024) with a screw-down crown, ensuring 10 ATM water resistance.
The Super Antarctic 3.6.9 stays true to its vintage roots, available in two options: a matte black dial or a tropical dial, both featuring Swiss Super luminova. To enhance authenticity, Nivada Grenchen introduced an aging effect to the dial and hands (commonly reffered to as fauxtina in the watch collecting community) With a diameter of 38mm and lug-to-lug distance of 45mm, it boasts a substantial thickness of 12mm. Notably, the iconic gold medallion adorns the caseback.
