The Autochron Mecaquartz blends the best of mechanical and quartz movements in a hybrid chronograph that delivers precision with a sweeping chronograph hand. Its matte black textured dial is adorned with Art Deco-inspired sub-dials in salmon tones, adding depth and a unique vintage appeal.A quartz watch with the feel of a mechanical watch, the new version of the Nivada Chronosport features the famous Art Deco-style typography on the sub-dials, in sand salmon tones, which illuminate the textured black dial and create depth with a 3D effect. It is powered by a VK67 mecaquartz 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 mecaquartz movement is to combine the precision of quartz with the beauty of traditional watchmaking, thanks to an automatic movement module. The quartz module 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. Powered by the VK67 movement, the Nivada Autochron 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.
