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.
A border crosser with a sense of rhythm – Carlos Leal
Some people wear time like an accessory. Others feel time as an inner pulse – rhythm, attitude, energy. Carlos Leal is one of the latter.
His path is not a straight line, but an elegant curve through life – sweeping like the hands of a watch. It is precisely this attitude that connects him to us and our watches. Carlos wears our moon phase not as a status symbol, but as a companion to an attitude: attentive, curious, always on the move. An artist who doesn’t measure time, but lives it – and thus fits in perfectly with us.

Events
PADELTA – PULS 5
04 .09 – 10 .12
Location: Giessereistrasse 18, 8005 Zurich, Switzerland
This game pushes you to your physical and emotional limits. It’s a great opportunity to appreciate the physicality of an automatic watch. That’s why we’ll be there with our watches.
BERN POP-UP
15 .09 – 31 .12
Location: Uhrsachen, Theaterpl. 1, 3011 Bern, Switzerland
In Switzerland, Swiss watches are not particularly striking. Unless, of course, it’s a watch that speaks to you in the Swiss dialect. We’ll be showing you this watch and other horological surprises at our pop-up store in Bern!
THRYVE Concept Store
01 .10 – 01 .02
Location: Bärengasse 16, 8001 Zurich
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.
Polarzauber
20 .11 – 24 .12
Location: Zurich Main Station
Station concourse
Our watches take a little time if you want to look at them closely. This year, the Polarzauber at Zurich’s main station offers the perfect setting to do so, softening winter with long and wonderful encounters with our timepieces. It’s going to be a beautiful Christmas season with you.
