Nivada Chronometre Serial Numbers

CambridgeV8: /* Serial Number List for NAOCC (Nivada Antarctic Officially Certified Chronometre) */

== NIVADA OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED CHRONOMETRE SERIAL NUMBERS ==

It is hoped that here on Chronopedia we can create a list of serial numbers issued to these watches. Each model sold originally had a paper certificate which matched the serial number on the movement. Most of the paperwork has been lost over time, sadly. However the majority of observed examples do carry a 1 to 4 digit code in addition to the movement reference, normally the ETA 2452, later 2472, engraved on the movement which enables us to catalogue and date them. This is also a good way to assess that the watch is original and has not been altered or made up from lesser parts.

The NAOCC model seems to have been issued late 1958 and was still being marketed in 1965. There are exceptions to this but the majority of observed examples carry the number. The Rudolphs Dependable OCC version, marketed by Croton in US, does have an individual number on the movement on the few examples seen. It has a slightly different case with a semi concealed crown.

It seems the NAOCC was sold both in North America and Europe with the Nivada Grenchen name and not the Croton Nivada Grenchen branding more typical of the North American market. Note also the spelling of Chronometre in European style.

The number is engraved in the location shown in the movement shot here:

[[File:Logo-nivada.png|thumb]]
==Nivada==

Nivada is a Swiss watch company. Nivada is a manufacturer of Swiss watches, assembling them from movements made by other manufactures. Nivada was founded as early as 1879 in Grenchen, Switzerland.

==History==
In 1926, Nivada was operational in Grenchen as Wüllimann Schneider Nivada S.A. The company relied on proven movements from [[ETA]] and [[Phénix]] S.A., as was typical at the time, and the company was known for quality mass-produced watches. Nivada celebrated its 100th anniversary in 1979. The company was run by Max Schneider, grandson of the founder, at that time.

Nivada was prevented from using their name during the 1960s and 1970s in the USA due to its phonetic similarity with Movado (there was a court case), so the products were labeled "[[Nivada Grenchen]]".

In the United States, [[Croton]] was formed in 1940 as a distributor for Nivada products, so many were sold under the "[[Croton Nivada]]", "[[Croton Nivada Grenchen]]", and simply "Croton" names.

The Nivada brand was also used in South Korea by the Kim Suk Keun Watch Company from 1985 through the 2000s. Today, Nivada is still incorporated in Grenchen, Switzerland and the brand continues. It has in 2020 relaunched versions of the [[Nivada Antarctic|Antarctic]] and [[Croton Nivada Grenchen Chonomaster|Chronomaster]], its most famous models.

Nivada Antarctic Chronometre

CambridgeV8: /* Nivada Antarctic Officially Certified Chronometre (NAOCC) */

[[File:Rudolph oc.jpg|thumb|Rudolph version. Credit IG @viva_schweiz]]
[[File:Nivada gold chrono 1.jpg|thumb|Nivada Antarctic Chronometre Gold]]
==Nivada Antarctic Officially Certified Chronometre (NAOCC)==
This particular model is part of Nivada’s Antarctic line, which reflects the brand’s support for the US Navy during “Operation Deep Freeze' for IGY in 1957/58 and was very much the top of the line watch for the company. It can be found in steel, gold plate and (very rarely) solid 18k gold. Most notable is the case back with a beautiful gold medallion commemorating the expedition itself. The watch was issued circa 1957/8 and available for a few years, but based on observation, it is a rare thing indeed and very collectible now.

Most versions seen are powered by the ETA 2452 or 2472, an advanced movement in its day and quite similar to today’s 2824. Although just 18,000 A/h, it features bi-directional winding and “quickset” date (though not crown-set date like modern watches). It was tuned to chronometer specification at the factory, a prime selling point for this watch, similar to the [[Omega Constellation]]s of the same period. The movements carry an engraved 4 digit number unique to each one and corresponding to the certificate accompanying the watch. The rotor also bears engraving regarding setting to 3 positions and temperature.

If you have a NAOCC, please add your details to the serial number list here: [[Nivada Chronometre Serial Numbers]]

The dials are seen brushed, with the larger hour markers and dauphin hands as seen on the other Antarctic models. A blue second hand as per the first Antarctic models has been seen on the Rudolphs Dependable examples but most hands are non lume with matching silver or gold second hand. Dials are seen with and without 12 at top and minute markers in Calatrava style. Steel versions also seen with gold markers and hands in early serial numbers. Crown is unsigned certainly in the early models pre 1964.

The gold one appear to be a no-date version which is perhaps more elegant and formal as befitting its 18k status, and with more simple dial and hand configuration. It is also a later model as shown here and indicated by the use of the Nivada logo-style script. What is slightly confusing is the use of Aquamatic rather than Antarctic on the dial!

These watches were also marketed by Croton in the US and Canada. They do not appear to carry the Croton name however. A version for the Rudolph’s Dependable department store in upstate New York has also been identified but it does appear to carry a certificate number on the movement.

Nivada Chronometre Serial Numbers

2024-05-23T16:05:23Z

CambridgeV8: /* NIVADA OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED CHRONOMETRE SERIAL NUMBERS */

== NIVADA OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED CHRONOMETRE SERIAL NUMBERS ==

It is hoped that here on Chronopedia we can create a list of serial numbers issued to these watches. Each model sold originally had a paper certificate which matched the serial number on the movement. Most of the paperwork has been lost over time, sadly. However the majority of observed examples do carry a 1 to 4 digit code in addition to the movement reference, normally the ETA 2452, later 2472, engraved on the movement which enables us to catalogue and date them. This is also a good way to assess that the watch is original and has not been altered or made up from lesser parts.

The NAOCC model seems to have been issued late 1958 and was still being marketed in 1965. There are exceptions to this but the majority of observed examples carry the number. The Rudolphs Dependable OCC version, marketed by Croton in US, does not have an individual number on the movement.

It seems the NAOCC was sold both in North America and Europe with the Nivada Grenchen name and not the Croton Nivada Grenchen branding more typical of the North American market. Note also the spelling of Chronometre in European style.

The number is engraved in the location shown in the movement shot here:

Gruen Precision 510 and James Bond

==Gruen Precision 510 and James Bond==

==The James Bond Connection==
[[File:3-Connery-Gruen.jpg|thumb]]
If you look carefully, the Gruen 510 was the first watch to be worn on set during pre-production and the first day of shooting in the casino scene and when arriving at the airport in Jamaica. The casino is where Sean Connery uttered his introduction, “Bond, James Bond,” The watch is barely visible under his shirt cuff and can be seen while dealing.

The watch worn by Connery as 007, was the Precision 510 featuring a 17-jewel movement. The 34 millimeter gold-filled case was infact average for the time period, most watches were between 32mm and 37mm. The watch features a small bezel surrounding an elegant, classic, white dial. This model features Arabic numbers for 12, 3 and 9 o’clock; the 6 o’clock position is covered by a large sub-seconds dial while the other hours are index markers.

This dress watch is what the gentlemen of the day, 1962, would wear with their tuxedos. It would have been inappropriate to have Bond wearing a diver’s watch while dressed in a tuxedo. Wearing a Rolex Submariner, on the other hand, fit the bold and adventurous activities Bond took part in. Over the years, the Bond watches have continued to reflect the changing times in wrist wear and style while staying true to Bond’s style.

Glycine Combat

2024-05-13T19:45:37Z

CambridgeV8: /* Features */

==Glycine Combat==
[[File:Glycine combat.jpg|thumb]]

The history of the Glycine Combat is shrouded in mystery. It was made circa 1967 in relatively small numbers, possibly as an exercise by Glycine to secure a US Army military contract. This is now thought unlikely as it has a snap-on rather than screw back. The watch and its Airman bigger brother were certainly popular with Vietnam-era military personnel and many saw 'active service' despite not being official. Numbers produced may be several thousand but there are no records to confirm or deny this - they were lost some years ago in a damaging flood of the Glycine headquarters. Additionally Glycine has had several different owners since 1967. There is a similarity with it and the [[Glycine Altus GG-W-113 |Altus Glycine]] seen a few years later in 1986 as an official US armed forces issue.

An individual example has been seen with Bailey Banks & Biddle on the dial - a retailer of jewelry formed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1832, often called America's oldest jewelry store. Another with Beacon Hill on dial, a Boston USA retailer, is shown.

Glycine Combat

==Glycine Combat==
[[File:Glycine combat.jpg|thumb]]

The history of the Glycine Combat is shrouded in mystery. It was made circa 1967 in relatively small numbers, possibly as an exercise by Glycine to secure a US Army military contract. This is now thought unlikely as it has a snap-on rather than screw back. The watch and its Airman bigger brother were certainly popular with Vietnam-era military personnel and many saw 'active service' despite not being official. Numbers produced may be several thousand but there are no records to confirm or deny this - they were lost some years ago in a damaging flood of the Glycine headquarters. Additionally Glycine has had several different owners since 1967. There is a similarity with it and the [[Glycine Altus GG-W-113 |Altus Glycine]] seen a few years later in 1986 as an official US armed forces issue.

An individual example has been seen with Bailey Banks & Biddle on the dial - a retailer of jewelry formed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1832, often called America's oldest jewelry store. Another with Beacon Hill on dial, a Boston USA retailer, is shown.
