About this entry

60% of key specs known. Missing: lug-to-lug, lug width, weight, hardening, crown, bracelet offered.

Unimatic's first forged carbon watch, made with Hodinkee in 2023 as an individually numbered edition of 250 (sold by Hodinkee as the Modello Uno U1S-Carbon GMT), alongside a forged carbon Modello Quattro U4S. It is a U1S GMT on an ETA 2893-2 in a forged carbon case, so it is its own model. From Unimatic's description: matte forged carbon case whose grey pattern differs on each piece, titanium caseback with the individual number, 8mm crown, individually tested to 300m, matte black engraved 24-hour bezel insert, double-domed anti-reflective sapphire (side not stated), matte black dial with C1 lume, GMT hand with a hollow arrow tip in C1, ETA 2893-2 with a 42h power reserve, black TPU strap with forged carbon hardware. Esquire's launch report gives a 41.5mm diameter and 11.6mm thickness (recorded) and a titanium inner case. The description calls the caseback an exhibition sapphire caseback, but the product photo shows a solid engraved titanium back, recorded as solid. Photos show a date window at 6. The page links no spec sheet: lug to lug, lug width, crown and bezel action are not stated. Unimatic's store shows 0 for this sold-out edition, so the price is the 2,900 USD launch price from Esquire (sold through Hodinkee). No weight is published.
