Description: Nivada Grenchen x Seconde Seconde Super Antarctic Keep FrozenIf you like your watches a little less on the serious-side, and you've not heard of Seconde/Seconde, then you're absolutely missing out on one of the coolest artists and creators in modern watchmaking. Romaric and his brand Seconde/Seconde have gained quite a lot of notoriety in the past couple of years for their fun and sometimes daring takes on vintage watches, and have also recently moved into collaborations with watch brands such as Massena LAB, Moser, Louis Erard and now Nivada Grenchen. These super-fun seconds hands may not be for everyone, but we absolutely adore them. So much so, that we own two Seconde Seconde modified pieces ourselves, and have no doubt there'll be a few more in the future as well!As noted, the watch we have here is a collaboration with Nivada, and it's mega. It's based around the the Antarctic, which was Nivada Grenchen’s first waterproof automatic watch and was worn by the members of the American Navy’s Deep Freeze 1 during their expedition to the South Pole from 1955 to 1956. The Super Antarctic improved upon this original design with a more legible dial and rugged case, and this is the modern interpretation of that watch. It's probably slightly less legible now, given the seconds hand has been replaced with a rotating disc reading 'Keep Frozen'. But who needs to know what second it is, anyway? This amazing dial is mounted within a 38mm steel case with 100 metres of water resistance, and is powered by the Soprod P024 automatic movement. It's mounted to the brilliant Tropical rubber strap with quick release springbars and steel tang buckle.This particular piece was purchased in September 2022 and remains unworn.
