Legacy Models
This section is a reference database of legacy collections and models that were launched and discontinued over the years by Gruppo Gamma. The models in this section are no longer available for sale.
The Genesis collection marked the beginning of our brand. It was available from 2013 to 2016, through its Mk I (2013/14), Mk II (2014/15) and Mk III (2016) iterations. The collection was born of our desire to recreate the legendary tool watches issued to Italian frogmen in the 1950s. While case and dial design was based on the Rolex Reference 6152, case diameter was reduced to 44mm from the original 47mm, and case shape was revised for better fit. There were two dial designs, Arabic 12-3-6-9 and "California", and in various colors. Some dials had small seconds display. One had dot minute markers, a design that would later become Gruppo Gamma's signature. An Owners' Club Limited Edition was also released.

The Ascent is a spinoff of the Genesis but in a slimmer case that was made of brass, which acquires a beautiful patina over time. It was available from 2013 to 2015, through Mk I (2013/14) and Mk II (2014/15). There were two dial designs, Arabic 12-3-6-9 and "California", and in various colors. The California dial comprises Roman and Arabic numerals and got its name supposedly from a California-based company that refurbished Rolex Bubblebacks with these dials in the past, when those were the rage. Some had dot minute markers, a nod to an elusive prototype from the '50s and a design that has now become Gruppo Gamma's signature.

Commercially available between 2014 and 2016, the Mk III Vanguard is offered in stainless steel, titanium and bronze, each with multiple dial configurations, and later releases had their Mk III status embossed on the crowns.The Bronze Vanguard, our first model using bronze cases, was released in 2015. It was also our first model to be offered with the Roman dial, a tribute to the Italian origins of the Vanguard's source of inspiration. The 'Bronzo' became an instant favorite amongst collectors and further cemented our reputation for tool watches. Released in 2017, the Mk IV Vanguard had markedly improved build quality and darkness visibility. The first Mk IV models, which had 42mm cases, featured the SuperSandwich™ dial that's filled to the brim with Swiss Super-LumiNova, to achieve the best darkness visibility ever on a Gruppo Gamma timepiece. Visually, the most prominent change from Mk III to Mk IV was the design of the numeric markers on the dial.

In 2021 we decided to surface the Mk I Vanguard, an old-school, retro-inspired interpretation that's based heavily on the same early design that spawned the Peacemaker. This design in fact preceded those of the Vanguard models (Mk III, Mk IV) that we've been rolling out since 2014; it was a design that we decided not to put into production at the time. The Mk I Vanguard collection is powered by mechanical movements from ETA, the largest Swiss movement manufacturer in the world.

The 1950s was one of the most exciting periods in dive watch history - in 1953 Blancpain introduced the Fifty Fathoms which was issued to the US and French naval divers, Zodiac introduced the Sea Wolf, and in 1954 Rolex introduced the Submariner. Ironically, it was also in the 1950s that Panerai stopped producing dive watches for the Italian frogmen. Available from 2016 to 2018, the Divemaster draws inspiration from these legendary watches in much the same way that different watch designs in times past have influenced one another.Available from 2019 after the successful rollout of its predecessor, the Mk II Divemaster continues to draw inspiration from the first dive watches released to he world in the 1950s. The Divemaster was sold out in 2022 and discontinued.

The super compressor, twin-crown dive watches with rotatable inner bezels, were the rage in the 1960s. The Chrononaut, available from 2017 to 2019, seeks to revive the design of twin-crown watches. The Chrononaut is a modern interpretation of a classic look that Gruppo Gamma pulls off like no other. On one hand it pays tribute to the vintage styling cues (including even reproducing details like the cross-hatched crowns) while on the other, it has retained the signature styling cues of Gruppo Gamma.

Available from late 2017 to 2020, the Peacemaker is a remake of an early Vanguard design conceived in 2014 to replace the Genesis, our first line of watches. Owing to a chain of unexpected events we never managed to put that early design to production.The Peacemaker, with its strong retro vibe, has brought back the California dial with a twist, by way of a 'Semi-Cali' dial in military stencil typeface. The Peacemaker is also offered with our signature 'Supernova' dial that was based on an elusive prototype in the '50s that we've revived and modernised we were the first to put this dial to watch production in 2014.

First introduced in the late 19th century, field watches have been used by soldiers to time and coordinate tactical operations, and are characterised by their sturdiness, versatility and high legibility in both day and night. The Field I was the first series of timepieces created under Venturo, a sister label of Gruppo Gamma that was launched in 2018. The Field I was available from 2018 to 2020. Available from 2021 to 2023, the Field II is based on the elusive Rolex Oyster Army, Ref. 3139, that was issued in small numbers to the Allies during World War II, and for which production had stopped many decades ago. Box-shaped crystal and case's rounded underside complete the vintage look.

The popularity of a sub-category of slimmer, lighter and dressier divers, called "skin divers", can be traced back to the late 1950s, up to the Quartz Crisis in the 1970s. With the Skindiver, we've incorporated key design cues from skin divers of times past into a modern and refined timepiece that's immediately recognisable as a Venturo.
