AMIDA UNVEILS THE DIGITREND OSII BLACK
A VISION BROUGHT TO LIGHT

GENEVA, Switzerland -  2026 - AMIDA today reveals the next step of its journey: the Digitrend OSII Black. Born from the desire to continue the legacy of the 1976 icon, this timepiece is the evolution of the OSII concept.

Limited to 150 pieces, it features our proprietary jumping-hour module encased in a new black PVD internal framework, and, for the first time, a fully lumed display - made possible by a full sapphire hood that allows light to reach all the way to the core.

.These elements combine to create the design from the future we were promised. 

THE VISIONARIES WHO NEVER GAVE UP

The space-age aesthetic was preserved by a small, dedicated group of visionaries who refused to let the dream of mid-century design fade into history.

AMIDA honors this persistence. We recognize a community that treats this design language as a roadmap for the future. This is no distant nostalgia to be viewed from afar.

The OSII Black was designed to validate this belief. It creates a physical continuity between the eras, proving that the organic curves and mechanical audacity of the past were never obsolete - they were simply waiting for the right moment to shine again.

We built this watch to offer a totem of dedication for those who are an active part of the 'Historical Correction.' It is their tactile proof that the timeline is finally moving in the right direction.

A DESIGNER’S DUTY: MATERIALIZING THE CHANGE

AMIDA co-founder and creative director Matthieu Allègre dismisses the definition of a heritage archive. For Allègre, the brand is an active tool for change. A way to physically retrieve the "Lost Future."

"The mid-century design movement gave us a baseline of audacity that was abandoned too soon. My role is to pick up from where AMIDA left off," says Allègre. "We do not look back to copy the past. We look back to resume the work."

With the OSII Black, Allègre believes we are getting closer to a Historical Correction:
"We are finally building the machine they dreamed of making, but couldn't."

ENGINEERED TO EVOLVE THE PAST

The Digitrend OSII Black translates the concept of evolution into structural reality:

The Transparent Shield (Sapphire Hood): The traditional metal shell is replaced by a complex sapphire hood. Machined from a single block of sapphire, it acts as a transparent shield, protecting the movement while allowing light to flood the internal architecture from every angle.

The Internal Framework (Structural internal): With the interior now visible, the design must extend inward. A new DLC-coated 316L steel internal framework creates a structured construct that is integrated into the architecture of the jumping-hour module. This deliberate, sculpted form replaces the hidden utilitarian parts of the past, ensuring that every internal component is a contribution to the aesthetic.

The Interface (Luminous Display): For the first time, the jumping-hour display is fully legible in the dark. Charged by light penetrating the sapphire hood, the BGW9 Super-LumiNova® indices ignite in the dark.

Combined with additional luminous accents on the framework, the design continues into the dark. In the past, the Digitrend disappeared at night, but now it projects a “Nocturnal Form” that remains faithful to its design language.

The OSII Black achieves founder Matthieu Allègre's end goal, blending functional usability with an enhanced aesthetic presence. An evolution of an icon.
