Melbourne-based MAAP and Italian watchmaker UNIMATIC have come together for a limited edition timepiece, designed with cycling enthusiasts in mind. This collaboration marks a significant milestone for both brands, a debut watch for MAAP and the first titanium timepiece with a shockproof quartz movement for UNIMATIC.<\/p>\n
The design approach for the UNIMATIC x MAAP Modello Quattro UT4-T-M combines the rugged charm of classic military style with modern functionality. Crafted from sandblasted Grade II titanium, this tool watch is meant to be both a style statement and a testament to durability, exemplified through its shockproof quartz movement. Its robust construction includes a 360\u00b0 anti-shock protection system and water resistance up to 300 meters, making it an ideal companion for cyclists in various environmental conditions.<\/p>\n
Limited to just 100 examples, the watch is meant to serve as a symbol of exclusivity and craftsmanship. It boasts a 12.00mm profile, providing comfort and practicality for wearers, both on and off the bike. Notably, MAAP co-branding can be found on the dial, strap and acid-etched at the caseback.<\/p>\n
Reflecting MAAP’s commitment to top-tier production and materials, the watch is crafted in Italy, a nod to both MAAP’s manufacturing roots and the country’s rich cycling culture. The watch is set to release December 14 for a retail price of $1,145 USD via MAAP’s official site and comes with a custom Shadow Gray MAAP TPU quick-release strap, a classic Olive seatbelt nylon NATO strap and a special UNIMATIC x MAAP case.<\/p>\n
