A Swiss Integrated Bracelet Sports Watch Born in the 1970s
The Nivada Grenchen F77 is a bold revival of a Swiss sports watch first released in the late 1970s, an era defined by sharp lines, geometric cases, and the rise of integrated bracelet watches. With its distinctive angular case and integrated steel bracelet, the original F77 stood as a symbol of cutting-edge Swiss watch design. Today, this rare icon returns, carefully reissued with modern refinements while preserving its vintage character, available in two executions: MK1 and MK2.
F77 VINTAGE PIECE FROM THE 70’S
The 1970s marked a turning point in Swiss watchmaking, an era where form met function, and luxury embraced sport. The F77 was Nivada Grenchen’s response to this shift. With its faceted case, integrated bracelet, and bold dial textures, it stood confidently among the avant-garde steel sports watches of its generation.
Modern Mechanics Beneath the Vintage Charm
While the design remains rooted in the past, the F77’s movement and build are firmly modern:
• Sapphire Crystal – Scratch-resistant and clear as ever.
• Automatic Swiss Movement – Ensuring precision, reliability, and a 38-hour power reserve.
• 100m Water Resistance – Making it versatile enough for daily adventures.
• Screw-Down Crown & Solid Caseback – Adding both durability and a robust vintage feel.
Titanium Grade 5
Renowned for its exceptional strength and lightweight properties, Titanium Grade 5 sets the standard for durability and comfort in watchmaking. With a composition of approximately 90% titanium, 6% aluminum, and 4% vanadium, this alloy offers unparalleled performance and resilience.
Swiss Power & Heritage
Originally designed and manufactured in Grenchen, Switzerland, the F77 stays true to Nivada Grenchen’s watchmaking roots. It is powered by the Swiss-made Soprod P024 automatic movement, reflecting the brand’s commitment to precision, authenticity, and quality.
Built for everyday versatility, the F77 features a 100 m (10 ATM) water resistance and a screw-down crown ready for water in all its forms, whether liquid or solid.
The Titanium Meteorite F77
The reintroduction of the F77 marked a defining moment for Nivada Grenchen, instantly resonating with collectors and watch enthusiasts. The very first release sold out rapidly, confirming renewed demand for this distinctive integrated bracelet sports watch in the modern era.
Building on that momentum, Nivada Grenchen pushed the concept further with a bold evolution: the Titanium Meteorite edition. Crafted in lightweight Grade 5 titanium and featuring a dial cut from genuine meteorite, this special release elevated the F77 into a new realm of collectibility. The fusion of space-born material with iconic 1970s design DNA captured the attention of the watch community, making the Titanium Meteorite edition one of the most sought-after and talked-about F77 versions to date.

• Material Variants:Available in both stainless steel and titanium cases, with dial options including lapis lazuli, aventurine, meteorite, and smoked brown, each offering a unique visual appeal.
F77 MK2
• Thickness: Now 12.2mm (vs. 12.65mm in previous models) — slimmer for a more refined profile.
• Refined Bracelet: Redesigned integrated bracelet with improved ergonomics for enhanced comfort and wearability.
• Elegant New Hands: Sleek Dauphine-style hands replace the original baton set, elevating the overall aesthetic.
• Versatile Lugs: Drilled lugs make strap swaps effortless — transition from bracelet to rubber in seconds.
• Same Bold Presence: Maintains the iconic 38mm diameter, double-domed sapphire crystal, and 100m water resistance.
