WARM & WONDERFUL X MAURICE DE MAURIAC “BLACK SHEEP”
The ‘Black Sheep’ design has now made its way into watch culture through a luminous collaboration between Zurich-based watch brand Maurice de Mauriac and Warm & Wonderful to celebrate the 45th anniversary of the original knitwear company revitalised by Rowing Blazers.
Limited to 45 pieces, the ‘Black Sheep’ edition fits most wrists with its 39mm case, traditionally used in the brand’s Classic collection and tennis-inspired Rallymaster series. It is powered by a Swiss Landeron automatic movement and comes with not one, but two two-piece stretch textile straps specially developed for Maurice de Mauriac – one black and one white, both with a red centre line, which can be worn according to the wearer’s mood or style.

Watch Specifications
The PVD-Case back
The case back is made of solid, polished stainless steel with a PVD coating and engraved sheep logo.The watch is equipped with not just one, but two two-piece textile flex straps specially developed for Maurice de Mauriac - a black and a white one, both with a red centre line, which can be worn as the mood takes you or as the occasion demands.
Black screw-down crown
The case is 12 mm high. The black crown is easy to grip and can be turned precisely so that the watch can be set with great ease. The water resistance is 10 ATM. This means that the watches can be worn when washing hands, in the rain, when washing up and showering, when washing the car, when skiing, trekking and, of course, diving. The Watchbox
The set contains a specially made black sheep and a specially made, two-piece stretchable textile flex strap, with a quick-change system for changing the straps quickly and independently.The watch box also includes a ‘Black Sheep’ patch that can be knit anywhere to underline the symbolic distinctive identity and the significance of being the odd one out.
The darker the lighter
Super-LumiNova is a phosphorescent phosphor and is free from radioactive additives. Super LumiNova is a hundred times brighter than other inactive luminescent pigments. When the luminous pigments are stimulated by daylight or artificial light, they release the light energy they have absorbed over several hours in the dark. This makes the watch extremely easy to read, even in the dark. The darker the brighter In an era of globalization, individuality is more and more valued.
In a politically correct era where there is pressure to behave according to socially acceptable conventions, being a black sheep means one rejects to conform. For those free spirits who refuse to run with the pack, Maurice de Mauriac and Warm & Wonderful have created a seminal collaborative timepiece: the ‘Black Sheep’.Diana was a perfect symbol for the so-called black sheep:
She stood outside the royal norm and was particularly loved for it. That suits us, as Maurice de Mauriac is always a little outside the mainstream and is loved for it. When the question arose as to whether we wanted to make such a ‘Diana watch’, we immediately embraced the idea. 1

Special Edition
A Swiss flying squadron wears our watches at supersonic speeds, our watches have accompanied them on the long journey to the moon, they have chased felt balls, plunged down mountains, rowed across the Atlantic, conquered the desert and been on the world's stages. Not just like that, but as a collaboration in which two names proudly adorn a watch. The collaborators are world-famous or only known in their own world. For us, they are heroes. Each for themselves. And each for you.
Time is Love ❤️👀
At Christmas, time slows down. It becomes warmer. More attentive. More human.
Our father lived with passion. When he loved something, he stayed loyal to it. What mattered to him was never a logo or a label, but the feeling behind it. Colour. Energy. Consistency. Love, lived every day.
There is a small heart that has accompanied our family for many years. For us, it became a quiet symbol. A reminder to follow your heart, to stay compassionate, to think clearly, to live with colour and to remain open to the world.
Christmas reminds us of exactly that. Loyalty. Presence. The courage to care.
Time is not measured in minutes these days. It is measured in shared moments, familiar gestures and the people we choose to love.
Time is Love.

We loved the idea of being able to go to the Christmas market without having to worry about whether the weather would allow it or not. That’s why we’re part of the Christmas market in Zurich’s central station hall this year.
We cordially invite you to share the special atmosphere of this market with us. Let’s breathe in the Christmas air together, enjoy the special atmosphere of this hall, and have what matters most—a good time.
You can also get the big MDM newspaper 2026 from us here. Why are we emphasizing this so much? Come and get it, then you’ll know.
See you later!
Massimo, Leonard, Masha
and the whole Dreifuss family
Enjoy the final supermoon of 2025 🪩 - with the matching watch.

Carlos Leal lives life at his own pace – with our watch
Musician, actor, nomad: Leal doesn’t think in terms of categories, but in terms of movement. Growing up in Lausanne as the son of Spanish immigrants, he experienced the tension between family warmth and Swiss precision from an early age – a tension that shaped his creativity.
As a hip-hop artist with Sens Unik, he made his mark on the sound of the 1990s. Leal continued to follow his inner rhythm – into acting. Snow White was his breakthrough, followed by international productions such as Casino Royale and engagements in Hollywood.

Concept stores are very special places in themselves. So we present ourselves there in a very special way. With the smallest watch boutique in the world. You can “talk” there with the concept watches from our City Date collection. And gaze at other watches that simply stare back at you in a relaxed manner.
