The Datomaster Black Mecaquartz Limited Edition of 100 pieces. At 36mm in diameter with a sleek 12mm thickness, the watch retains its vintage proportions while delivering a modern mechanical twist. Inside, it’s powered by the VK64 Mecaquartz movement, blending quartz accuracy with mechanical chronograph functionality.
The Datomaster Black Mecaquartz offers a choice between three strap options: a black rubber strap, a black racing strap, or a black tropic rubber strap. Each option is designed for versatility and comfort, ensuring that the timepiece feels just as good on the wrist as it looks.
The dial is understated yet refined, with a central chronograph seconds hand and a 3 o’clock subdial accentuated in orange, giving a subtle nod to the playful design cues of the ‘60s. The date window is positioned neatly at 6 o’clock, balancing the layout and giving the dial a distinctive, retro appeal.
Water resistance is rated at 10 ATM, making this watch suitable for everyday wear, while the stainless steel case and K1 glass offer durability. As a limited edition, this release adds an extra layer of exclusivity for collectors who want a piece that stands out without overwhelming the wrist.
Nivada Grenchen has been on a roll, and the Datomaster Black Mecaquartz is a testament to the brand’s ability to merge history with contemporary watchmaking. The use of the VK64 Mecaquartz movement here feels almost poetic—an homage to the quartz crisis era that nearly spelled the end for so many Swiss brands, now repurposed in a vintage-inspired chronograph. At 36mm, this timepiece is ideal for those who prefer a more traditionally sized watch, and while it might seem small by modern standards, it’s perfectly in line with mid-century chronograph designs. The orange accents on the dial, combined with the variety of strap options, give the watch a certain versatility that will appeal to collectors who appreciate vintage flair without sacrificing comfort. What makes this release stand out is its playful yet purposeful execution—right down to the restrained 12mm thickness. It's the kind of watch that looks just as good with a suit as it does with casual weekend wear. And with its 10 ATM water resistance, you won’t have to worry about taking it off for day-to-day activities. In short, the Datomaster Black Mecaquartz is another feather in Nivada’s cap, a modern re-edit of a timeless design that’s sure to find its way onto many wrists.
