Nivada Grenchen Watch: F77 Chrono Mecaquartz Carbon 38mm

Nivada Grenchen F77 Chrono Mecaquartz Carbon - The first F77 chronograph in history

The Nivada Grenchen F77 Chrono Mecaquartz Carbon is the modern, hybrid version of a watchmaking icon. It inherits the design of the F77 range, with an integrated case, riveted bezel, and a vintage-sport-chic aesthetic, while adopting a hybrid mecaquartz movement to combine precision and convenience.

Its matte black carbon-textured dial gives it a sober, textured, and sporty style, accented by silver applied indices and two chronograph sub-dials.
The 38 mm 316L steel case - with a thickness of 12.2 mm - makes this Nivada F77 a balanced, urban watch that is comfortable on the wrist.
A double-domed sapphire crystal, screw-down crown, steel case back, and luminescent indices complete this mecaquartz chronograph designed for reliable daily use.
