Proud to score this beauty under 100 and the second hand and dashes behind hour markers look just sharp!!

 

Love my Croton CASD

 

I’m a big fan. I’ve started compiling a list of the Antarctic models on Chronopedia. https://chronopedia.club/Nivada_Antarctic_Models

 

That’s great work! Will definitely have a look good at it to understand more!

 

My dad's wedding watch from 1960.

 

Count me as a fan.

 

Here is mine:

Yes, I changed out the hands, so this is technically a “mod.”

Before you jump all over me, let me say in my defense that in my opinion this watch falls well short of being truly “collectible”. So, like those who mod their inexpensive Seikos for fun, I felt that modifying this one was not a crime against nature.

It came in excellent condition with original box and Croton brochure. The dial is a beautiful gloss black.


But the original hands were tarnished and detracted from the attractive dial.

And, it's chrome plated and only 31.5mm, so I decided to have some fun with it.

I am trying this German band but would like to find something better to wear it on.

 

Vy fine little Croton you got. The old hands do not bother me to be honest but “mod” is certainly fun with these watches !!
