CHRONO MODERN “OASIS RALLY TEAM”
MDM.330.ST.42.BN.R-2
This watch rises from the sands of the Dakar.
Built on the Chrono Modern — the classic by Daniel Dreifuss — the Oasis Rally Team watch carries our DNA within it: clear, honest, uncompromising. Its sand-coloured dial with fine texture feels as though the desert wind itself has shaped it. It captures the light of the Dakar and carries it forward — through the stages and into the everyday life of true rally enthusiasts. The tachymeter in the colours of blue flames evokes heat, energy, and passion.
The fluted bezel stands for resilience, reducing glare under extreme conditions; the heat-resistant textile strap is made for dust, heat, and constant movement. Sapphire crystal with double-sided anti-reflective coating, 100 metres of water resistance, and a robust stainless-steel case make this watch a companion that doesn’t ask questions — it simply goes with you.
Inside beats the ETA 7750. Visible through the sapphire case back, defying every movement. Here, mechanics become emotion. Time gains body and soul.
This watch is not a souvenir of the Dakar.
It is part of it.

Watch Specifications
screw-down pushers with cross-hatch bezel
Screw-down pushers grant an additional mechanical aspect to watches. In order to operate the stopwatch function, one has to first unscrew the collar then, close it again after stopping it. glass bottom in steel
Our see-through back case uses a sapphire crystal, and thus allows for a direct view of the ETA 7750 caliber. This gives the impression that the soul of the mechanical automatic movement can both be seen and felt. The watch is alive.Steel
Not all steels are created equal. We use 316L stainless steel; one of the hardest premium steels in the world. In addition to its hardness and resistance, this high-quality steel stands out because of its finish as well as its very fine silver hue. 316L steel has a significantly lower nickel emission than, for instance, 904L steel, which is also a high-strength steel alloy. This is, for us, a reason to favor 316L stainless steel.DAKAR 2026
The team will once again battle the heat, the landscape and the sand. We won't be sitting in the car ourselves, but our hearts will be there with them. You can't get any closer than that. We will let you share in this adventure until you can taste the sand between your teeth. Highlights
Sand-coloured dial with a fine sand texture, tachymeter in blue flame colours, ribbed bezel for improved resistance to hard knocks, heat-resistant textile strap, sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on both sides, 100 metres water resistance and a robust stainless steel case. Mechanics under maximum stress
We often explain that a mechanical watch is comparable to a car that constantly drives at 180 km/h. The Niva doesn't race that fast, but it does operate under the most severe conditions possible. And our watch races along with it. 1

Modern
The adventurers of the race tracks, roads,asphalt, salt, or sand, have always sought us, not us, them. Reason being our racing watches hold the "Lucky Number". So no matter if you yourself once had a successful race number, or a great idol had it. No matter if you want to document your cylinder number or your victories - you have the option to immortalize it on the dial! If that changes, then our Racing watches change with it. Just honorable racing.

The team’s Lada Niva is the perfect symbol of the @dakarrally spirit. Not a polished promise of high technology, but an honest character. Angular, robust, reliable. A vehicle that doesn’t ask whether the road is comfortable, but whether it is possible. In the same way, the Lada moves through landscapes larger than any ego and through days longer than any comfort zone.
We are proud to be part of this years Dakar with the @oasis_rally_team 🏜️🏁

Welcome to the toughest race on the planet: Dakar Rally 🏜️🏁 - and we are part of it @oasis_rally_team
It is not a race in the conventional sense. It is a trial that does not reward speed, but attitude. Precision. For us, this rally is a return to a feeling that runs deeper than motorsport. It is the sense of time as a companion, not an opponent. In the Dakar Classic, time is not chased — it is read. Stages are not won; they are passed. Every second matters because it tells whether human, machine, and moment were in harmony.
Sladi is back behind the wheel at the Dakar Classic. His Lada Niva has been refined with everything learned from the last Dakar, and there it stood — first vehicle on the grid, still in the dark, restless, tires clawing at the ground.
We are proud to be part of this years Dakar with the @oasis_rally_team 🏜️🏁
