Nivada Grenchen Antarctic Spider Automatic – 32023A04

The Antarctic Spider, a reissue by Nivada Grenchen, draws inspiration from a vintage model shared by an Instagram follower. While preserving its original charm, this timepiece integrates modern enhancements like Sapphire Glass and a Swiss automatic movement (Soprod P024) with a screw-down crown, ensuring 100 meters of water resistance. Its specifications include a 38mm stainless steel case with a thickness of 11.1mm, a shiny and brushed finish, and a versatile lug width of 20mm.
Featuring an art-deco sector dial, the Antarctic Spider boasts a daring design with eight vertically applied indexes on a silver sun-ray brushed background, reminiscent of a spider's web. Complemented by super-lumed "Dauphine" hands, this timepiece promises to turn heads with its unique aesthetic.
Originating from a variation produced in the 1970s, the Antarctic Spider shares a case resemblance with the Super Antarctic collection, affirming its heritage. The decision to reintroduce this model was fueled by the enthusiasm of a dedicated follower who shared images of the original Antarctic Spider, highlighting its enduring appeal.
True to Nivada Grenchen's tradition of Swiss craftsmanship, the reissue maintains authenticity and quality standards. By blending vintage design with modern functionality, the Antarctic Spider offers a distinctive timepiece that pays homage to its roots while meeting contemporary demands.
