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, an Italian brand from Lucca, owes its signature to military instruments: generous cases, a large crown, and an uncompromising character. The U-Boat Sommerso continues this approach with a round 46 mm silver case in stainless steel and a red dial. It is powered by a Sellita automatic movement (calibre SW200-1), providing a power reserve of 41 hours and 26 jewel bearings.
Swimming and snorkelling are no problem at all: the watch is water-resistant up to 30 bar. It features a date display. Sapphire crystal, a screw-down crown, and water resistance up to 30 bar make it resistant to daily use. It is worn on a 22 mm steel strap with a folding clasp. With a case height of 17 mm, it remains comfortable to wear.
