U-Boat Capsoil Titanio Limited Edition Chronograph Titanium Black Dial Black Rubber Strap Quartz Mens Watch Model# 8897
Going beyond the boundaries of traditional design, the Capsoil collection combines innovation with retro-style lines. By having its electromechanics completely immersed in an oil bath, U-Boat revolutionizes its creations and retains the brand's solid and unique personality. This fascinating chronograph is a limited edition of only 150 pieces and features a 45 mm titanium case that holds a deep black dial with two superimposed layers affixed with 4 screws under a scratch-resistant domed sapphire crystal. The dial is filled with a special oil and a visible air bubble that moves around, greatly amplifying its color and legibility, and creating an illusion of a seemingly non-existent crystal. It has black and luminescent baton-style hands with indices and Arabic numerals at the 4, 8, and 12 o'clock positions as hour markers, all treated with beige Super-LumiNova®. Three subdials display a 60-second, 30-minute, and 1/10th of a second counters. This "Destro"(right-handed) chronograph timepiece is equipped with a protected screw-down crown on the left side flanked with pushers and an underside engraving of its limited edition number. Fitted with a black rubber strap and secured by a matching titanium buckle, giving off a durable look. This watch also features a solid caseback with an innovative locking system and a quick battery replacement hatch which encases a reliable Swiss electro-mechanical movement, is lubricated with oil bath, and is water-resistant up to 100 meters/330 feet. When off the wrist, this watch should be kept at an optimal temperature between 0°C up to +60°C and away from direct sunlight or any heat source for too long.
Like all of our watches, this U-Boat Capsoil Titanio Limited Edition Chronograph Titanium Black Dial Black Rubber Strap Quartz Mens Watch is brand new and comes in its original packaging.
A watch brand founded out of Italy's Tuscany region 23 years ago, U-Boat is a company based in a country "villa" within Gragnano's hills, a land of marvelous inspiration for founder, Italo Fontana. Known for its distinctive, bespoke designs and oversized cases, U-Boat watches stemmed from Italo's grandfathers' drawings of watch designs for the Italian Navy which back then, did not materialize. Italo personally designs every watch, leaving behind his imprint, name, and persona in flesh and blood. In a span of just a few years, U-Boat has successfully opened boutiques around the world and are now available in more than 60 key markets and with their online boutique as well.
