A story of inspiration and style is the driving force behind every U-Boat watch, with roots dating back to 1942. Today, headed by Italo Fontana in the small town of Lucca in Italy, Fontana, thanks to his wonderful design skills, has taken the U-Boat brand to great heights of popularity whilst remaining a rare, sought-after product in the luxury watch market.
Designed from Italo’s ideal of pure, the Classico range is military-inspired with a timeless design. The awesome Classico U-47 watch carries the ethos of a classic watch whilst making a bold statement.
Encased within is a Swiss automatic mechanical movement constantly charging from wear on the user’s wrist, that has been configured to U-Boat’s stringent specification. With a 41-hour power reserve controlled by 4 hertz and 28,800 vibrations per hour, quality is found both inside and out.
The case is produced in AISI 316L stainless steel and has a satin hand finish. The 47mm size large structure with a sapphire crystal glass, allowing for perfect vision of the watch. Large screw-down crown cover to ensure maximum water resistance. The case back opening with fume glass allows the wearer to view the movement.
The black metal dial is the perfect backdrop for the hands, numbers and indexes and stands out due to the dial colour. This feature not only captures attention but also shows off the metal hands with beige SuperLuminova treatment and the stunning visible ruby.
Fitted with a lasered leather strap and buckle fastening, the watch screams U-boat with the nuances of unique quality used throughout, for which U-Boat have become revered for worldwide. This watch is complete with the stunning U-Boat presentation box and a 2-year international warranty.
