The Broad arrow Speedies are my absolute favorite. I've had my eye on the Nivada because of that similarity, as well as the superb dimensions. For the amount that I have ever used a chronograph for timing purposes, I would happily live with the blocked view.
I know. And thats probably the best way to go but the look of the broad arrow speaks to me. I'm torn between looks and maximum utility.
I'd go for looks. I've got a vintage Chronomaster, these aren't the biggest watches in the world, so if you want a practical chronograph you may be better off with something bigger

Is this because it partially obscures the chronograph at certain times?

Yes, almost a third of the subregisters.
I agree. It's too broad.
I can see where you’re coming from, It wouldn’t be a negative for me though.
Worst case scenario the time can be changed if chronograph legibility is paramount in a given moment.
I expect it’s a little difficult to avoid obstructions with chronographs. My Oris TT3 partially obscures the subdials at certain times also

I just had a oh duh moment. I had never thought to move the hands when finished timing.
All depends on how often you're going to use the Chrono function. I find I use mine rarely.
There are versions available without broad arrow hands
Nice looking attainable speedy alternative
I thought the same but I do also really like broad arrow handsets…. Cool watch

Man I love Nivada Grenchen, I only own an Antarctic the made a collab with Seconde/Sencode and it’s the most “fun” watch I own.
Who times anything between 8 and 10 anyway 😂
