Nivada Ref. 36099 Cal. FE 140, 1985
Nivada Ref. 36099 combines an original silver dial with a hand-wound FE 140 movement and a new leather strap. Dating to 1985, this men's dress watch has clean side lines and the restrained proportions of a traditional mechanical model. The watch head retains its original presentation, and all functions are working properly.
Original silver dial
The Nivada signature identifies a simple dial focused on readability. Slim hands sit within the balanced layout, with central indications for hours, minutes and seconds. The silver color and straightforward arrangement keep its dress-watch character understated.
The original dial is part of the watch's appeal. Its restrained design is easy to pair with formal or casual clothing without relying on heavy decoration.
Case profile and new strap
Clean side lines, a practical crown and comfortable vintage proportions define the case. The traditional shape of dress watches complements the dial, and an acrylic crystal covers the display. The resulting wrist presence is elegant and proportionate.
The watch is fitted with a new, high-quality leather strap. This is a replacement wearing component alongside the original watch head, giving the presentation a fresh and comfortable finish without changing the character of the Nivada itself.
Hand-wound FE 140
The FE 140 is a manual-winding mechanical movement. It gives the wearer the regular winding routine characteristic of manual-wind watches, driving the straightforward central time display. The clean presentation reflects the dress styling of mid-1980s vintage watches.
