Thats a good looking re-issue
I really like the design and size (39mm).....
What do you friends think of this? An honorable re issue with a 1000m depth rating?
I also wonder how much of the old NIvada company is left nowadays. The official website shows Chiasso (Switzerland) as an address and no retailers stated.

Thanks for sharing this, I honestly was not familiar with this brand. I'm moving it to HoMe so it gets picked up on the Front Page. Cheers.

Hello @lberti!! I’m very excited with the news of the reissue of this...
... model known by collectors as the Pacman after the shape of some numerals resembling the famous character.
The original is a rare diving watch from the 1960/70’s and it comes with the packman dial as well as a more conventional arabic numbers dial as well.
There are two versions of bezels as well: with red or black markings.
As the vintage is very rare and I would like to have one in my collection I wish I could get one of these new watches.
Prices are very reasonable as well.
Thank you for sharing this great pictures which adds fuel to my desire to own it!
Best! Abel
We share the love dear Nicolas. I wish I could get one of the new reissues. Looks like a great tribute to the original. Originals are absolutely impossible to get here.
They have been haunting my soul for long.
Cheers! Abel

Not easy to find, indeed. I saw two of them in the real. Two is not a lot!

definitely has unusual vintage DNA but...
Fake patina lume is death for me... I don't care who does it, deal killer... let a watch age naturally puh-leeeeze....
Lose the fake patina, yes, very cool design no doubt!!
The issue is that Luminova will not age. Now we have 25 years old watches with luminova dials, they don't get any patina.

I saw the non aged patina version. Looks weird to me. I am so used to the amber patina of the indices....

Do you mean super luminova will not age?
I have a 13-15 yr old Rolex with green lume that is aging nicely already... will S-Lume not age??
In the color? I would be curious to see that, my friend. Do you mean that the SL got some patina? I have seen some SL watches for twenty years whose indices and hands never changed in color.

Looks exactly like
An Enzo Mechanica I owned about 10 years ago, albeit with a different dial design. Without a doubt an incredibly durable if not overbuilt piece.
This is the exact watch I owned. Image from google images.
