The U1-MLM is a result of a collaboration between UNIMATIC and Massena LAB, inspired by the French navy of the 1960s. It is a modern interpretation of vintage design elements, featuring a limited edition of only 200 pieces. Each watch has a unique shade of deep blue dial, ranging from ocean to navy, crafted through natural color changes during production. The markers on the watch are hand-painted, ensuring crisp detailing, while an anchor engraving on the case back pays homage to French naval tradition. The timepiece has a Seiko NH35 automatic movement, a blue metallic bezel, and a sapphire crystal, housed within a 41.5mm stainless steel case. The U1-MLM comes with both a French navy olive strap and a UNIMATIC blue NATO strap, offering a distinct blend of craftsmanship and maritime heritage.

History of Unimatic Watches

Founded in 2015 by Giovanni Moro and Simone Nunziato, UNIMATIC has quickly risen as an innovative force in horology, blending minimalist design with robust functionality. The two met at the Politecnico di Milano and shared a passion for vintage Seiko watches. Despite following different career paths initially, their continued dialogue about watches led to the creation of UNIMATIC. Starting as a side project, their first limited run of 300 pieces gained significant exposure when Colette in Paris began carrying their products. A pivotal article by Hodinkee further catalyzed UNIMATIC's transformation from a hobby into a serious business.

UNIMATIC's philosophy centers on functional minimalism, stripping away unnecessary elements to focus on essential design and functionality. Each watch is pressure-tested to withstand depths of 300 meters, exemplifying their commitment to durability. The brand's collaborative approach between Moro and Nunziato has resulted in a cohesive design language, emphasizing refinement and functionality over decoration. UNIMATIC has grown organically, relying on word-of-mouth and strong designs rather than traditional marketing. Their commitment to Italian craftsmanship and local production has positioned them at the forefront of a new era in Italian watchmaking. As they continue to evolve, UNIMATIC remains a unique and influential player in the watch industry.
