U-Boat Capsoil Doppiotempo Black DLC Steel Black Dial Black Rubber Strap Mens Watch Model# 8840 / 8840/B
The oil-immersed dial concept meets dual-time functionality in this Capsoil Doppiotempo series, which translates to "double time". It features a 45 mm black DLC-coated steel case that holds a deep black dial with two superimposed layers under a scratch-resistant domed sapphire crystal and an internal bi-directional rotating 12-hour scale bezel. The dial is filled with a special oil and a visible air bubble that moves around, greatly amplifying its color and legibility which creates 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 position as hour markers, all treated with beige Super-LumiNova®. A green second timezone hand can be synchronized with the inner bezel to display a second timezone in hourly and half-hour intervals represented by a mix of green and luminescent beige bezel scale markers. This "Destro"(right-handed) dual-time watch is also equipped with dual lefty screw-down crowns, one for setting the time and another to adjust the dual-time function. Fitted with a black rubber strap secured by a matching black DLC-coated steel buckle which gives off a versatile look. This watch also features a solid caseback with an innovative locking system and a quick battery replacement hatch wherein underneath lies a reliable Swiss electro-mechanical movement, 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 Doppiotempo Black DLC Steel Black Dial Black Rubber Strap 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.
