Unimatic and Massena LAB have decided to join forces once again to celebrate one of the most ambitious space missions in modern history: NASA’s Artemis program. A tribute to lunar exploration and innovation, the result is the U1-SPG “NASA Artemis” Limited Edition, a watch that embodies the same audacity that drove man to walk on the Moon in the 1960s and to do so again, with one foot firmly in place, in 2026.
This is not the first meeting between Unimatic and Massena LAB, but there is something particularly fascinating about this collaboration. The reference to NASA, with its tradition of exploration and innovation, is tangible in every detail of this watch. Inspired by NASA and its legendary, bold choice of bright orange for the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, the design of the U1-SPG is a celebration of visibility and robustness. With a 40mm stainless steel case coated in orange Cerakote – a durable, rustproof, and aerospace-grade material – the timepiece makes a statement of strength and functionality.
But it’s not just a tribute, it’s also a true dive watch, with a 300-meter water resistance, a 2.5mm thick sapphire crystal, and a sturdy construction. The dial, featuring the famous vintage NASA logo, is built for maximum readability. The matte black, beige Super-LumiNova hour markers and hands in the same luminous material blend perfectly with the 24-hour scale on the perimeter, perfect for GMT work. The precise and reliable Seiko NH34A movement powers the watch, ensuring a 42-hour power reserve.
With only 99 pieces available, the U1-SPG “NASA Artemis” is destined to become a true collector’s item. Sold exclusively on MassenaLAB.com for $1,295, the watch comes with two straps – one orange nylon and one black – and a sturdy box with NASA patch.
