U3FB-ROPS: the new chronograph by UNIMATIC
The landscape of contemporary watchmaking welcomes an intriguing new challenge signed by UNIMATIC. The Milanese brand has just unveiled the Modello Tre ref. U3FB-ROPS, a chronograph that succeeds in the feat of merging the raw aesthetics of retro special operations with the pinpoint precision of modern engineering.
The inspiration for this new timepiece stems directly from the classic military watches of the past. The matte black dial is enriched with gold metallic details that offer an irresistible vintage warmth. To ensure maximum readability even during night missions, the watch features Super-LumiNova® GL "light old radium", applied to the indices and the brushed gold "ladder" hands.
Built for Action
Don't let the retro charm fool you: the U3FB-ROPS is a professional instrument through and through.
- Case: Crafted in 316L stainless steel with a black sandblasted DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating for extreme scratch resistance and an ultra-discreet profile.
- Water Resistance: Each unit is individually tested to ensure resistance up to 300 meters (30 ATM).
- Technical Details: The 8mm "Alchemical Sun" screw-down crown and the caseback featuring a military time conversion table emphasize the operational soul of the project.
The Meca-quartz movement
The engine of this Modello Tre is the Meca-quartz caliber VK64. This technical choice provides the best of both worlds: the flawless precision of quartz and the mechanical feel of the chronograph activation, with a sweep second hand that moves at 1/5th of a second.
Exclusivity and availability
As per UNIMATIC tradition, exclusivity is guaranteed: the Modello Tre U3FB-ROPS is produced in a limited edition of only 300 pieces worldwide, each with its own serial number engraved on the caseback.
