L2 DLC DEEP BLACK
MDM.L2.DLC.BK
design by Fabian Schwaerzler
“Maurice de Mauriac‘s 42mm ‚L2‘ watch is optimised for divers. The DLC-coated stainless steel case is fitted with a helium release valve to protect the internal calibre ETA 28.24-2 power source even at 30 bar below the water‘s surface. The back of this Swiss-made piece is engraved with a sea lion – a fitting adaptation of the city of Zurich‘s mascot, the lion.”

L2 Helium release valve
During extreme diving situations, helium atoms make their way into the watch. As such, the process of decompression could dislodge the watch crystal. The helium release valve prevents this from occurring by allowing the excess pressure to escape via the valve and due to this, it is possible to dive below 300 meters. L2 Caseback
A watch like a lion, a sea lion. What animal is closely associated with people and is known for its skilful ability to dive to great depths? The sea lion. The backside of the L2 is adorned with this magnificent creature, whose manoeuvrability, elegance and function attuned to life underwater stand for a diving watch blending all of these traits. Given that the lion is the symbol of Zurich, the city that has shaped the evolution of this watch, it seems only appropriate that the sea lion should be the symbol of the Maurice de Mauriac L2. A roar – both below and above water – has been sent out from Maurice de Mauriac throughout the world. Caliber ETA 28.24-2
ETA 28.24-2 is one of the most famous Swiss watch movement.TOP Execution

DLC Coating
Stainless steel or titanium with a DLC-coating (Diamond-Like-Carbon) stands out via its beautiful grey / black colour. DLC makes stainless steel extremely abrasion and scratch resistant. Moreover, the layer of carbon applied in a state-of-the-art vacuum process is also highly anti-allergenic. L2 The darker, the brighter
Super-LumiNova is a brand name under which strontium aluminate–based non-radioactive and non-toxic photoluminescent or afterglow pigments for illuminating markings on watch dials, hands and bezels, etc. in the dark are marketed. This technology offers up to ten times higher brightness than previous zinc sulfide-based materials. When the luminescent pigments were stimulated by daylight or artificial light, they give off the light energy in the dark for several hours. This gives the watch extremely good legibility even in the dark. 1

L-Series
Fabian Schwaerzler, Swiss designer and as such purist, has chosen the line as a design element and thus designed the L-series, the line series, from the Bauhaus era into the present. They have become icons of watch design. His design allows the watches to be discreetly present, but also to fill the space. Follow the line. It will show you the beauty of time.
Only a few people can drive the Mille Miglia. ❤️🏁
We have the Mille Miglia feeling for you.
The most beautiful race in the world is currently running, the race that wrote legends and still moves people’s hearts today. It’s not just any race - it’s the Mille Miglia, the legendary road race that transformed Italy into a stage for heroes from 1927 to 1957. The Mille Miglia was always more than just a race. It was an epic battle against nature, time and the limits of human ability.
For hours on end, the drivers drove 1,000 miles through the picturesque but challenging Italian countryside - from Brescia to Rome and back. The route led through fog, gravel roads and city junctions where only courage, skill and madness made the difference. Legends were born along the way: Nuvolari, who overtook Brivio in the dark with skill and courage, barely visible to the cameras. Or the British racing driver Moss, who averaged 157 km/h - with paper maps wrapped in a roll around his arm.
The Mille Miglia was always more than just a race; it embodied speed, style and an unbridled passion for competition. Drivers risked everything to achieve glory.
All this is in our L3 SPHERIC RED. It lets you ride the Mille Miglia all day long, when the (racing) drivers are already back at home or in the office.

Winner Photo of this Years Maurice De Mauriac Award is „Traces of Light“ #013 of @chris.tille 🌈📷
Chris Tille is an interdisciplinary artist and designer based in Zurich and Berlin (Switzerland/Germany).
No photography without light. German photographer and artist Chris Tille, who also integrates science into his work, is well aware of this. Instead of using traditional tools such as brushes and cameras, he analyzed the light for one of his series using a spectrometer.
Congratulation Chris! ✨

Following the ZÜRI-DATE, the BÄRN-DATE and the ZUG-DATE, the BASEL-DATE now speaks the Basel dialect. This means that the days of the week on the Day-Date movement speak the language of the people of Basel.
