AUTOCHRON 2026 Collection
Autochron 2026 is the new generation of the Nivada Grenchen Autochron, a racing chronograph that traces back to an experimental Autochron prototype of the late 1970s. The brand believes about 20 test pieces were made, never sold.
Every model has a 38 mm vertically brushed 316L stainless steel case with polished details, double-domed sapphire with anti-reflective coating, a water resistance of 20 ATM / 200 m and a wider aluminium bezel with 120 clicks and a unidirectional mechanism.
