SWISS MADE
Movement : Automatic
Strap

A 38mm hand-wound Swiss watch that looks like a purist's dress watch until you wind it. The domed eggshell matte dial is quietly luminous, warm against polished and brushed 316L stainless steel. Wind the crown and the sapphire caseback reveals a fully mechanical animated penguin automaton driven by the same motion that powers the Soprod P054 movement. Discreet, irreverent, and rooted in 18th-century Swiss automata tradition. 10 ATM water resistance. Swiss made.

A distinctive dial
Among watch dials, eggshell is rare. Not white, not beige somewhere between the two, with a domed, matte surface that absorbs light rather than reflecting it. This is a dial that looks different at every hour of the day: warmer in candlelight, crisper in sunlight, almost luminous at dusk. It pairs effortlessly with formal dress or weekend wear, and it ages well, the kind of dial that looks better after five years on the wrist than the day it arrived. The complication you keep to yourself Flip the watch. Wind the crown. Through the flat sapphire caseback, a miniature penguin automaton comes to life animated not by a battery or a separate motor, but by the same winding motion that powers the Soprod P054 hand-wound movement itself. A cam system integrated into the modified movement translates rotary winding into vertical animation. Stop winding, the penguin stops. It is a private mechanical spectacle, entirely invisible from the front, existing only

Built to be worn
The 38mm 316L stainless steel case is 12.45mm thick, with 45mm lug-to-lug a size that sits comfortably on most wrists without overwhelming. The screw-down crown brings water resistance to 10 ATM / 100 metres. A double-domed sapphire crystal offers scratch resistance and optical clarity. The alternating polished and brushed case finishing means the watch catches light without being flashy.

Nine ways to wear it
Available on nine strap and bracelet configurations: beads-of-rice stainless steel bracelet, flat-link stainless steel bracelet, black racing perforated leather, brown racing perforated leather, smooth black leather, smooth brown leather, black leather with white stitching, brown leather with white stitching, and black rubber tropic. The 20mm standard lug width means any third-party strap fits without adapters.

A HIDDEN MECHANISM

A secret revealed only while winding

Animated caseback complication on Swiss hand-wound watch, penguin automaton in motion while winding

A Legacy Reimagined

Built on the iconic Antarctic of the 1950s, this eggshell dial 38mm preserves vintage proportions while introducing a discreet mechanical complication hidden on the caseback. The penguins are moving when you wind the watch only!

Vintage Swiss watch caseback collection with penguin engraving, mid-20th-century polar expedition design
Inspired by the Caseback from the mid 60s & 70s

First introduced on our vintage models inspired by mid-century polar expeditions, the penguin engraving watch, seen here on the cream-toned eggshell dial edition, became a quiet signature of the collection.

1965 Swiss patent document for the penguin caseback design, registered in Grenchen Switzerland
The Penguin, Patented Since 1965

More than a symbol, the penguin is part of Nivada Grenchen’s heritage. Officially registered as a patent in 1965, this emblem traces back to the Antarctic collection’s roots in the age of polar exploration. Reinterpreted here from the original archival patent, it connects the Antarctic Erotic to a genuine piece of the brand’s history where vintage inspiration, playful character, and watchmaking legacy meet, brought to life here on a warm eggshell dial that echoes the patina of original 1960s Antarctic watches.

Inside the Secret Complication

Conceived by 'Dr. Coldwater,' the animated caseback complication on this eggshell dial Swiss watch transforms the simple act of winding into a hidden mechanical spectacle. Entirely revealed on the reverse side of the watch, this private animation is driven by motion, engineering, and a touch of irreverence. In this video, discover the assembly of the complication and the mechanical ingenuity behind a mechanism designed as a discreet surprise where playful storytelling meets serious watchmaking.
