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 was founded in 2000 by Italo Fontana, building on the designs his grandfather drew for the Italian navy in the 1940s. This version features a round 50mm grey titanium case with a black dial. It is powered by a Sellita automatic movement (calibre SW200-1), providing a power reserve of 41 hours and 26 jewels.
Titanium weighs significantly less than steel and is skin-friendly, making the watch light on the wrist. Additionally, there is a date display. Protection is not lacking: sapphire crystal, a screwed-down crown, and water resistance up to 10 bar. The watch is worn on a 23mm leather strap with a buckle.
