Limited Edition of 999 Pieces The case, in titanium grade 5, measures 53mm x 18mm (65mm with crown). The crystal is sapphire and it is water resistant to 300 meters. The bi-directional rotating bezel is lockable with a lever on the right side of the case. The U-42's winding crown was built in two parts: one is attached to the movement stem whilst the other is hinged to it with a pivot. This gives a flexible joint configuration which allows the crown to protrude considerably from the watch itself for winding and setting, yet returning it to a protected, hidden position diminishing the side clutter when in action. Movement is the automatic Swiss caliber U-BOAT U-28 with 25 jewels, 28,800 vph and a power reserve of 40 hours. The dial is made with a slab in brass galvanized and finished with a bright enamel paste. Hands are German Silver. The leather strap measures 23mm with 23mm buckle.

Italo Fontana U-Boat’s Flightdeck CAS BE is a wonder in watch***. The thick stainless steel case is either 43 mm or 50 mm in diameter with a beige face, brown hands and Arabic numerals. The automatic self-winding chronograph rests firmly on your wrist with an alligator strap. The easy to read dial is accented by the less than usual placement of the stem and push buttons on the left side. And if you have to ask, yes, it is depth-rated to 1,000 feet. 78 Uniqueness There are many quartz-powered watches out there with the likeness of the U-Boat Flightdeck CAS BE, but none have the intricate and complex automatic movements of a chronograph. This is a lot of watch, so be prepared for its size out of the box; however, the beige face and brown alligator strap keep it from being either too massive or predictable. Read more 88 Durability Huge time-keeping instruments are in at the moment, so you won’t have to worry about looking out of place and the small production cycles of the U-Boat Flightdeck CAS BE ensure that you won’t have that awkward moment of sitting next to another guy wearing the same thing. But you might long for a slim stainless steel watch after lugging this one around town. One thing is certain: The U-Boat name has a unique position in the watch world. It is Italian and focused on the extreme flight and dive watch style and market. Even if the large watch face craze disappears, the allure of this watch will always be in style.
