The Watch

Here we have an unworn Nivada Grenchen x Analog:Shift Chronomaster 'Big Eye' limited to 100 pieces, this is a collaboration piece with the charismatic Analog:Shift who sell vintage and pre-owned watches, founded by James Lamdin in 2012, an avid watch collector who loves to tell their respective buyers the varied and colourful stories of each watch. The 38.5mm polished and satin-brushed stainless steel case curves over your wrist with bevel-edged tapered drilled flat-ended lugs, and a lug-to-lug length of 46.5mm and a case thickness of 14mm give the watch an impressive wrist presence. Inspired by their colourful “Big Eye'' Regatta Yachting watches of the 1960s. Down the right side, we have the piston-style chronograph pushers and in the centre a signed crown. The light grey insert-60-minute and 12-hour scale give the illusion of an aged patina, bidirectional stainless steel bezel has deep knurling for extra grip holding a domed sapphire crystal resembling the acrylic domed crystals of the past, above a dynamic satin silver dial. An outer minute track is precisely executed with applied baton indexes marking the hours, at 3 o’clock we have the “Big Eye'' 30-minute register with the blue and orange Regatta 10-minute start countdown 1/5th second scale, at 9 o’clock we have the black 60-minute register, steel baton hands are infilled with SuperLumiNova and complemented by an orange lollipop chronograph hand. At 12 o’clock the  Nivada Grenchen motif and at 6 o’clock Analog:Shift, its placement on the dial is a nod to Nivada’s long heritage and its relationship with independent retailers. On the reverse a screw-down case back with the details of the watch around its edge and an embossed Nivada Grenchen in the centre, inside a manually wound Sellita Cal. SW510 BH B, 23 jewels, beating at 28,800 beats per hour, based on the cam-operated chronograph Sellita SW500-1. The watch comes paired with its 20mm “Beads of Rice'' polished stainless steel bracelet with a signed push-button deployment clasp and the watch comes with its Nivada Grenchen presentation box and paperwork.
