Nivada is a Swiss watch brand that was founded in 1878 by Johann Heinrich Moser in Grenchen, Switzerland. The brand's name is a combination of the Latin word "nivis," meaning snow, and the French word "niveau," meaning level. Nivada is known for producing high quality and innovative timepieces that are built to last. The brand's watches are characterized by their precision, durability, and elegant design. In the 1940s and 1950s, Nivada produced several iconic watches, such as the Antarctic, the Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver, and the Depthmaster. The Antarctic was a waterproof watch that was designed for use in extreme conditions, such as on scientific expeditions to Antarctica. The Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver was a versatile watch that was popular with pilots, divers, and sailors. The Depthmaster was a diving watch that was designed to withstand the high pressure of deep sea diving. In the 1960s, Nivada introduced the Chronoking, a chronograph watch that was known for its accuracy and precision. The Chronoking was popular with pilots and was used by several airlines, including Swissair and TWA. In the 1970s, Nivada introduced the Datomaster, a watch that displayed the date and day of the week. The Datomaster was one of the first watches to feature a quick set function that allowed the wearer to change the date without having to adjust the time.
