Over U-Boat
U-Boat was founded in 2000 by Italian designer Italo Fontana, inspired by his grandfather Ilvo's 1942 sketches, who was once commissioned to design watches for the Italian Navy. Each U-Boat watch is handcrafted in Tuscany, is immediately recognizable by its striking crown on the left side of the case, and combines Italian craftsmanship with Swiss precision movements. A watch for those who dare to stand out
U-Boat, the Italian brand from Lucca, owes its signature to military instruments: generous cases, a substantial crown, and an uncompromising character. The U-Boat Classico U-47 beige 100M continues this approach with a round 47mm silver stainless steel case and a white dial. Powering it is an automatic Sellita movement (caliber SW200-1), providing a 41-hour power reserve and 26 jewel bearings.
Where a quartz watch requires a battery, this model is simply kept running by being worn. It also features a date display. Protection is not lacking: sapphire crystal, a screw-down crown, and water resistance up to 10 bar. Attached to the wrist is a 23mm leather strap with a buckle.
