This winter, Unimatic, Revolution and The Rake will take you to the North Pole to find "fox"
Posted by KS Chan on
This winter, the Italian watch brand Unimatic collaborated with Revolution and The Rake for the first time to launch a cold and pure GMT watch: "U1 GMT Arctic Fox (Arctic Fox)".
In winter, the arctic fox is snow white, and its white fur helps it camouflage itself in the snow, making it one of nature's most stealthy predators. The all-white colorway of this limited-edition watch draws inspiration from the arctic fox and its fascinating color-changing fur, which alternates from brown in summer to pure white in winter.
"U1 GMT Arctic Fox" belongs to Unimatic's "Modello Uno" professional diving watch series, and its case has a design language that is instantly recognizable. The U1 GMT Arctic Fox follows the stainless steel case of the Modello Uno, but has a ceramic-based Cerakote coating commonly used in automobiles, motorcycle exhausts, and firearms to harden its surface while increasing its resistance to corrosion and extreme temperatures.
The dial continues the monochrome color scheme, with just a touch of black added to accentuate the scale and tips of the seconds and GMT hands. At the same time, the bezel is made of raw aluminum, which is solid to the touch. The GMT Special Edition is equipped with the Swiss-made ETA 2893-2 movement, which provides the watch with a power reserve of up to 42 hours. In addition to the original white strap, it also comes with two other black or blue and white camouflage printed straps.
"U1 GMT Arctic Fox" adopts a 2mm thick screw-in case cover, and the surface of the solid case cover is satin-brushed and decorated with various text messages.
