In the five years since Unimatic exploded onto the watch scene with its minimalist watches that are both affordable and built in strictly limited numbers, it’s the Modello Uno diver that’s garnered the most media attention. But the Italian microbrand’s Modello Due field watch is an equally novel proposition, boasting a rugged stainless-steel case, a clean and easy-to-read dial and a reliable automatic Seiko movement.
Unimatic has now introduced updated versions of the Modello Due. Available in both a brushed stainless-steel (limited to 500 pieces) or black DLC finish (limited to 250 pieces), the individually numbered U2-F and U2-FN feature an elegant RAF Grey version of the brand’s vintage military dial, an improved 300 metres of water resistance, and a two-piece nylon strap matching the watches’ case.
Judging by the seemingly increasing popularity of each new Unimatic drop, we can’t imagine these new pieces will hang around for long. Fortunately, our readers can buy them directly from the Classic Driver Shop.
