Urban Automatic Sandstorm Watch URB-AUTO-BEG

The Watch

Founded in 2014 by Michael Young, Hong Kong-based Undone has carved out a name for itself in the watch world through its avant-garde style and one-of-a-kind craftsmanship. The brand brings to the forefront a broad range of modern, classic, and sporty watches powered by high-performance movements and crafted from premium contemporary materials for lasting wear. Reimagining watchmaking classics with a bold, innovative spirit and its own distinct personality, Undone continues to be the go-to brand for modern men who want to express themselves through authentic, ultra-precise timepieces. This season, the brand unveils its latest timepiece, the Urban Automatic Sandstorm - a clean, refined model with timeless aesthetics that draws inspiration from the beauty of the 1950s while embracing today's technology. This URB-AUTO-BEG watch in beige is set to become your new everyday essential, elevating your look from day to night with an urban, elegant edge. Nostalgic, bold, and endlessly stylish, it pairs effortlessly with your entire wardrobe and delivers a unique watchmaking experience for years to come. Its round case is crafted from stainless steel and enhanced by a polished finish that gives it a brilliant shine while accentuating its slim profile. It sits gently on your wrist for a comfortable, pleasant all-day wear. Designed for men, it measures 40 mm in diameter with a thickness of 14.60 mm. At 3 o'clock, an onion crown with a grooved design lets you set the time and date at any moment. It is complemented by a pusher at 2 o'clock for operating the counters. A scratch-resistant domed sapphire crystal covers the dial, providing optimal shock protection while reinforcing the vintage charm of this model. On the caseback, a transparent exhibition back featuring a K1 mineral glass aperture lets you admire the stunning inner workings of the movement, while maintaining a water resistance of 10 ATM.

The Dial

Enhancing the urban, timeless elegance of this model, a round dial with a double-circle finish sits precisely within the case, exuding refined charm. Its vertically brushed background in matte beige adds a soft, modern touch to your wrist while ensuring clear timekeeping. Two gray baton hands with pointed tips deliver the hours and minutes with great precision, accompanied by a slim seconds hand in gray with a red tip. They point to gray baton indexes - including a double baton at noon - for quick and easy hour recognition. These indexes feature SuperLuminous dots for optimal legibility in low-light conditions, a luminescent treatment also applied to the hands for all-conditions visibility. The dial is graduated with a minute track rendered in black marks and surrounded by black Arabic numerals positioned every 5 minutes around the perimeter. A date window sits at 6 o'clock, accompanied by a month counter at 3 o'clock and a day counter at 9 o'clock, enriching your experience with the watch. Like the perimeter, these two subdials feature a sandblasted finish for a striking effect. Finally, the brand name is inscribed at 6 o'clock as a signature.

The Movement

The case of this model houses caliber 9122, a top-tier automatic movement renowned for its performance, efficiency, and precision in all conditions. Equipped with a stop-seconds mechanism, this 26-jewel movement is manufactured in Japan by the acclaimed Miyota manufacture. It powers the watch with exceptional fluidity, ensuring the reliable operation of the hands, counters, and date window. Hours, minutes, seconds, and calendar information are all displayed with dependable accuracy at all times. Note that this movement beats at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4 Hz) and delivers a 40-hour power reserve.

The Strap

This watch sits on a nubuck strap crafted from bovine leather that will beautifully adorn your wrist every day, turning heads with its classic, refined aesthetic. It comes in a gorgeous beige color accented with white stitching for a more assertive elegance. It wraps delicately around the curves of your wrist for outstanding wearing comfort. Easy to style, it adds that perfect finishing touch to any outfit, giving you an exquisite vintage look. Its stainless steel pin buckle makes it easy to put on and take off while keeping it securely in place throughout the day.

Water Resistance

This model offers a water resistance of 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters - a genuinely water-resistant watch. This stylish timepiece is ready to dive into aquatic adventures right alongside you. From puddles to the pool, it handles any soak without breaking a sweat. Shower, bath, and serious swimming? No problem. That said, our Ocarat watch experts want you to know that while this model is water-resistant, it is not suited for diving (professional or otherwise) and should be kept away from high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend avoiding the crown and pushers while the watch is submerged.
