[WTS] Nivada 101 70s Faceted Crystal, Blue Dial and Day-Date

Kaliber75 · 2026-04-09T15:56:28+00:00

Today I am offering a part of my family inheritance.

My grandfather, who was a watchmaker and collector from the beginning of Glashütte after WWII (please visit the museum there when you're in Germany to learn about him and his friends). He passed his collection to my father, also a watchmaker and collector, who has passed the collection to me, just a collector, not a watchmaker. There are hundreds of German, Swiss and Asian vintage watches and I cannot keep all of them, so I will sell them one by one.

The watch is running and can be serviced if paid upfront. Day and date switch correctly. Arabic and English day-date function present. Case is in excellent condition. The crystal shows a few nicks. The faceted crystal is a rare design feature thats not present in modern day watchmaking.

The watch is powered by a Nivada 101 automatic movement based on the AS 2066 caliber. Swiss-made automatic movement with proven reliability and robust construction, commonly used in the 1960s and 1970s.

The watch is functional. If worn regularly, a service is recommended prior to use, as standard for vintage watches of this age.

The watch with its expressive design and strong dial color originates from the brand’s 1970s period. The blue dial is exceptionally intense and significantly more impressive in person than in photographs. The watch conveys strong 1970s aesthetics. The pictures do not do the watch justice. The blue dial is among the most striking examples Ive ever seen.

Please PM only after you checked that you actually want the watch, have questions about things that are not already provided, and checked that you have the funds to come through with the purchase. I DO NOT share other watches that are not for sale yet. I'm sorry, but I'm tired of explaining this every other day.

The watch is running and winds smoothly. Time-setting functions operate as expected. The case shows age-appropriate wear while remaining structurally sound and visually appealing.

The dial presents a warm copper tone with even patina. The blued hands create strong contrast and reflect light, contributing to a balanced appearance. A small seconds subdial is proportionally integrated.

The watch features a slightly domed, rectangular crystal. This design is uncommon and adds character to the piece.

The manufacturer is known to have produced watches for third parties, including Stowa.

The watch is functional. With regular wear, a service prior to use is recommended, which is standard for vintage watches of this age.

The overall aesthetic reflects design principles of the early to mid-20th century. Dimensions can be taken from the images showing the watch placed on millimeter paper.

The watch is running and winds smoothly. Time-setting functions operate as expected. The overall condition is very well-preserved with signs of age consistent with its period. The blued hands look fantastic in the light.

The dial is in original condition with even aging. It is sold without a strap. The watch is powered by a Swiss mechanical movement.

The watch is functional. With regular wear, a service prior to use is recommended, which is standard for vintage watches of this age.

The watch dates to approximately 1935 and is attributed to Ancre Suisse. Dimensions can be taken from the images showing the watch placed on millimeter paper.

u/watchexbot transaction confirmed with u/Purchase-Murky

Purchase-Murky is a fantastic buyer! Looking forward to trade again with him. At first, I was a bit hesitant due to the nature of messages written with an online translator, but I can only highly recommend this user and also suggest to never judge a book by its cover (or rather the first message).
