Nivada Antarctic Diver Models

Nivada Antarctic Diver Models

Although the original Antarctic watches are waterproof and fairly rugged, there was clearly a marketing move to appeal to a wider audience with diving watches being a suitable move away from the more formal dress nature of the 1957/57 line. An entire range of diver models are seen with the Antarctic name, including Submarino, Antarctic 200, Super Antarctic from the early 1960s onwards and the name has continued in some form or other with Quartz and lesser models.
