L2 GMT STEEL BLACK
MDM.L2.ST.BK-2-1-1
design by Fabian Schwaerzler
“The clear, unadorned lines of the L Series are perfect for a diver’s iteration, which is as much substance as it is style: waterproof to 300m, surgical steel in 316L quality and a helium outlet valve are other features. What does that mean? Nothing less than the ability to make a long saturation dive without worrying that your sapphire glass will fall off when you finally reappear and relax.”

To indicate GMT, the L2 has another hour hand, which is typically arrow-shaped than the 12-hour hand. In contrast to the hour hand, the GMT hand circles the dial once within 24 hours, i.e. only half as fast, so you can also set and keep an eye on the time in another time zone.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, due to this special valve, 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 skillful ability to dive to great depths? The sea lion. The backside of the L2 is adorned with this magnificent creature, whose maneuverability, elegance and function is attuned to life underwater. Represents 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.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.L2 GMT – 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 light energy in the dark for several hours. This gives the watch extremely good clarity even in the dark.1

L-Series
Fabian Schwaerzler, Swiss designer and purist, has chosen the simple line as the core, clean, minimal design element and thus gave birth to the L-Series. Connecting the line series from the Bauhaus era, to the present Icons of watch design they have since become. His minimalist design allows the watches to be discreetly present, yet in addition, fill the void. Follow the line. This series will show you the beauty of time.
Päps 4-Ever ❤️ it doesn’t matter where.
For the past few years, our father, we call him„Päps“, hung above all the shelves at the end of the room, so that he had a good view of the table university and the entire atelier. As a silent critic, a constant inspiration, and a romantic memory.
After we had packed up all the stories of the atelier, with Maurice de Mauriac’s heart now beating only in moving boxes, Päps remained as the last great story. This situation had arisen, and yet it seemed as if it had to be exactly that way.
The captain is always the last to leave the ship. In this case, however, nothing is lost; we are simply changing ships.
Thank you, Päps, for allowing us to continue your life’s dream. The beginnings in Tödistrasse will always remain the first and strongest story.
Needless to say, the picture of Päps in Rämistrasse was one of the very first things we gave a new home to.
From February 16, you can see it at Rämistrasse 5. Until then, we have to achieve the impossible – get everything ready.
Massimo, Leonard, Masha
and the whole Päps family

TIME TO MOVE 📦 After 26 years at our beloved Atelier on Tödistrasse 48, the time has come for a new chapter.
We are incredibly excited about this big step and can’t wait to welcome you into our new home at Rämistrasse 5.
We found the perfect place. Beautifully enough, it sits just opposite our father’s favourite restaurant @kronenhalle (We like to think of it as his sign from heaven)
Please note that we will be closed from February 9 to 15 while we move.
From Monday, February 16, we look forward to opening our doors at our new address:
Rämistrasse 5, 8001 Zürich. #moving #mauricedemauriac #rämistrasse
BE READY FOR OUR NEXT BIG MOVE✨. New address, same spirit. See you soon at Rämistrasse 5, 8001 Zurich. #rämistrasse #mauricedemauriac #bigmove
Incredible! The Russell Story continues…
After visiting us during the @zurichfilmfestival Russell invited us to personally deliver his Rallymaster IV to his farm in Nana Glen. So after launching it in Melbourne during AO 2026 we went to see him on his farm and stayed full three days. We had just an amazing TIME.
This is a real dream coming true and an once in a life time experience! But most important it shows that also Hollywoodstars are only human beings who love community & family ❤️
