Matricola:29404 Croton is one of those oddball brands that, while having roots back to 1878, registered some level of popularity in the 1960’s with various chronographs. Oh, and as an aside, Croton stands for “Croton-on-Hudson” which is a town in New York just outside of NYC. From what I’ve seen, the brand was essentially a seller in the USA and also acted as a USA distributor for Nivada-Grenchen. There’s a wild array of the well-known Aviator Chronomaster Sea Diver badged as Croton, Croton Nivada-Grenchen and just Nivada-Grenchen, so I really have a hard time figuring out the actual relationships. The piece today, the Croton Skymaster, seems to have a unique design at least amongst Nivadas. The Croton Skymaster follows a rather tried and true formula that we’ve seen in a lot of chronographs here on #TBT. First, it contains the column wheel equipped Valjoux 72 manual winding chronograph movement. There’s nothing unique about it in this case as it goes unadjusted, but is at least signed on the bridge. Moving on, the case is of stainless steel construction and is about 36mm in diameter with a lug width of 18mm.
