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
The Italian brand U-Boat from Lucca owes its signature to military instruments: generous cases, a hefty crown and an uncompromising character. The U-Boat Chimera SS Green continues this approach with a round silver 46mm stainless steel case and a green dial. Behind the dial is an automatic Sellita movement (calibre SW200-1), providing a power reserve of 41 hours and 26 jewel bearings.
A mechanical movement does not require a battery but does require attention: wear it regularly and it will keep itself going. Practically, it offers a date display. Sapphire glass, a screw-down crown and water resistance up to 10 bar make it resistant to daily use. The finish consists of a 22mm leather strap with a buckle. The case height remains within limits at 15mm.
