Official description

The Massena LAB Uni-Racer is a testament to the art of defying the rules and creating a timepiece informed by the past, but with a “Big Eye” on the present. The Uni-Racer is a 21st-century interpretation of a mid-century classic, with each detail of the watch painstakingly re-edited for the modern watch wearer. The Uni-Racer features a 39mm stainless steel case, finished horizontally for added visual interest.

The dial is configured in a "Panda” white dial and features a 30 minutes “Big Eye" counter as well as a small seconds counter. Zooming in, the wearer can appreciate the specific and shifting blue color of the hour, minute and central chronograph hands, which was achieved through an arduous process of using traditional hand heating, oxidation, and other metal treatments. Look even closer and you will notice the engraved “M” logo in the acrylic crystal, reminiscent of the old days.

As the company names implies, the Uni-Racer was created through a process, much like a laboratory experiment, but the final product is a timepiece that is meticulously crafted, rich in details and history, and intended to be a new cult classic beloved by connoisseurs and casual watch fans alike.
