Unimatic works in collaboration with Revolution and The Rake on their first project together, highlighting an Arctic Fox theme in the form of the limited-edition U1 GMT timepiece. It gets an all-white colorway and is inspired by the arctic animal, specifically how it changes colors.
The summer time evokes a brown tonal fur and when the season changes to winter, their fur turns into a pure white color. The watch is complete with a ceramic-based Cerakote-finish, often seen applied onto cars and firearms due to its resistance again extreme temperatures. The dual feed into the overarching monochromic theme and is detailed with thin black accents to emphasize the indices and tops of the GMT and second hands.
