Revolution & The Rake and Italian watch brand Unimatic have teamed up on a trilogy of collaborative limited editions. The first model from this series is the stealth white Modello Uno GMT “Arctic Fox”.
Drawing inspiration from snow camouflage, this pure white watch is based on Unimatic’s U1 GMT. For this special collaborative edition, the watch received a considerable makeover starting with a white surface treatment. Cerakote is a ceramic-based finish that is applied to objects such as high-end firearms to considerably enhance their wear and corrosion resistance, and surface hardness.
The U1’s unidirectional bezel features a coat of white Cerakote. The matte raw aluminum bezel insert offers the best legibility and perfect subtle contrast to the matte white Cerakote of the case. The dial is similarly pure white but features the liberal use of Super-LumiNova with thin black surrounds for the hour plots for easy reading. Similarly, the GMT hand features a black border to make it easy to distinguish at a glance.
The case measures 41.5mm in diameter and 11.2mm in thickness. The crown is screw-down and assures a water resistance of 300 meters. Inside the watch ticks the ETA Caliber 2893-2 Swiss made automatic ETA movement with GMT function.
This new timepiece comes with a total of three straps: a white snow camouflage NATO strap with steel keepers, a white rubber strap, and a gray pixilated camouflage strap. The latter two straps are each secured with a Cerakote white stonewashed pin buckle.
The Unimatic × Revolution & The Rake Modello Uno GMT “Arctic Fox” will be made in 150 examples with a retail price of EUR 1,500.
