The Chronoking is distinguished by its unusual date located at 12 o’clock and two-grey debossed sub dials. The beautiful Super Luminova hour-marks are highlighted when the powerful red hands smoothly glide over them. The black aluminum bezel, with distinguishable large numerals, creates a bold personality to the watch. The 38 mm diameter stainless steel case with screw-down back is a testament to the watch robust and edgy design.

What do we all really want from a vintage watch? We want a good watch. Of course we want a good watch. And we want more.
Following the reissue of their Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver, Nivada Grenchen is poised to launch the next chapter of the brand’s resurgence with the Depthmaster.
"Does it really look that close to the original vintage Nivada Grenchen?”
And, I’m happy to say, the answer is, yes!"
