Antarctic 35mm Collection
SLIM-NEO-VINTAGE OLD SCHOOL
The Antarctic 35mm is an elegant timepiece where the dial takes center stage. With a choice of black, white, or eggshell/off-white, it features applied steel indexes, Art Deco-style numerals at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock, and arrowhead indexes. Luminescent arcs replace traditional dots on the hour markers, creating a unique aesthetic.
The 'Nivada Grenchen' signature sits proudly below the 12, 'Antarctic' above the 6, with a discreet 'Swiss' along the minute track. Classic dauphine-style steel hands, a slim luminescent band, and a blued steel elongated second hand add an elegant touch. The caseback, adorned with an embossed penguin on a gold medallion, pays homage to the watch's heritage. In a flick of the wrist, this Antarctic 35mm transcends time, capturing the essence of the 1950s.
