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 style to military instruments: generous cases, a massive crown, and an uncompromising character. The U-Boat Chimera SS black continues this approach with a round 46 mm silver case in stainless steel and a black dial. It is powered by a Sellita automatic movement (calibre SW200-1), providing a 41-hour power reserve and 26 jewel bearings.
While a quartz watch requires a battery, this model is simply kept running by being worn. It features a date display. Furthermore, it has sapphire crystal, a screwed-down crown, and water resistance up to 10 bar. It is worn on a 22 mm leather strap with a buckle. With a case height of 15 mm, it remains comfortable to wear.
