Nivada Grenchen Chronosport Mecaquartz Watch with Black Dial #77001Q45

The Autochron Meca-Quartz blends the best of mechanical and quartz movements in a hybrid Autochron that delivers precision with a sweeping Autochron hand. Its matte black textured dial is adorned with Art Deco-inspired sub-dials in sand tones, adding depth and a unique vintage appeal.

Powered by the VK67 Meca-Quartz movement, the Autochron Meca-Quartz offers a three-year battery life and maintains the elegance of traditional watchmaking. The 38mm stainless steel case features a rotating aluminum bezel, a double-domed sapphire crystal, and a screw-down caseback, ensuring water resistance up to 200 meters (20 ATM).

Available with leather, steel, and rubber strap options, this model offers versatility and style at an accessible price point.

A Quartz Watch with a Mechanical Feel This new version of the Nivada Chronosport features the famous Art Deco-style typography on the sub-dials, here in sand or salmon tones, which illuminate the textured black dial and create depth with a 3D effect. It is powered by a VK67 Meca-Quartz movement with a three-year battery life. The chronograph hand sweeps smoothly across the dial, mimicking the motion of mechanical watches. The principle of a Meca-Quartz movement is to combine the precision of quartz with the beauty of traditional watchmaking, thanks to an automatic movement module. The quartz part provides the timekeeping, while the mechanical module ensures the proper operation of the chronograph (at 6 o’clock). This is why they are often called hybrid movements.

A Quartz Watch with a Mechanical Feel
This new edition of the Nivada Grenchen Chronosport comes in two striking colorways—salmon and yellow—offering an updated, yet timeless twist on the iconic design. The dial retains the famous Art Deco-style typography on the sub-dials, now rendered in either sand or salmon tones, which perfectly contrast the deep black textured background. The combination of these rich hues adds a dynamic 3D effect to the dial, giving it a sense of depth and movement.True to the original design, the Chronosport is equipped with a stunning bidirectional rotating fluted bezel, crafted from durable aluminum. A bold yellow dot at 12 o’clock adds a pop of color, bringing both vibrancy and elegance to the watch. This functional aesthetic is paired with a tachymeter scale on the bezel, an essential tool for race car drivers to measure speed over a fixed distance—blending practicality with visual appeal.
