It has something to do with their inherently superior water resistance, durability, accuracy, as well as their ease of replacement and all that.  We won't bore you with the practicality of it all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSeeing that we engage in at least one of these activities on a monthly basis, we have had to make some tough decisions and select modern watches that are up to difficult tasks without being,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eyou know\u003c\/em\u003e, too modern and bleh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUnimatic has been favorite modern brand of ours since they launched in 2015. Based in Milan, Italy, they are the brainchild of two young Italian gentleman who had a desire to construct minimalistic tool watches, built to exacting standards that have classically-industrial designs and are heavy, tough, and beautiful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Modello Due U2-C is a variant of their basic field watch design with a 38.5mm steel case and no-frills time only display. It features a minimalist matte black dial with vintage colored Super-LumiNova indices, and a three-hand movement sourced from Seiko. The model also features a double thick domed sapphire crystal, an improved 300m depth rating, and a unique tapered case profile that renders it \u003cem\u003eextremely\u003c\/em\u003e comfortable on the wrist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBasically, a Unimatic is perfect for doing all those things you'd never in a million years wear your precious vintage watch for. This particular example is a sold out model in nearly-new condition from its original owner and comes with its complete kit, including inner and outer packaging, warranty card, instruction manual, and a pair of straps. It is sensible, practical, and incredibly good looking. We almost hate how much we love it.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFor more information on Unimatic Watches, click\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.unimaticwatches.com\/\" title=\"Analog\/Shift X Unimatic Watches\" target=\"_blank\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.unimaticwatches.com\/\"\u003eHERE\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unimatic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32347992883287,"sku":"40990019","price":1250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/1255\/products\/UNIMATIC_U2-C_ASO3798-6.jpg?v=1603723459","url":"https:\/\/www.analogshift.com\/products\/unimatic-modello-due-as03798","provider":"Analog:Shift","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
