What to know

UNIMATIC has teamed up with Neapolitan silk specialist E. Marinella to give the Modello Quattro a remarkably dressy interpretation of a military GMT. The square-shouldered 40mm stainless-steel case remains unmistakably utilitarian; a deep blue patterned dial and coordinating two-piece nylon strap bring a different sort of Italian heritage to the wrist.

The NH34A automatic calibre provides a central GMT hand and a date window at six. White luminous markers, 300m water resistance and a thick sapphire crystal preserve the Quattro's tool-watch credibility. Only 100 examples of reference UWK-U4-GMT-EMJDM were allocated to Japan, at ¥253,000 including tax. Announced October 2 and released October 9, 2026, it is sold through selected E. Marinella shops and Floens online; the manufacturer says international shipping is unavailable.
