About U-Boat

U-Boat is an Italian brand founded in 2000 by Italo Fontana. Its watches are known for large cases, the crown on the left side and a lever that protects it.

The collections range from the Classico to the Capsule and the Chimera, in steel, bronze and PVD finishes.

What to know before you buy

  • U-Boat watches are large: check the diameter in each listing against your wrist.
  • PVD is a dark coating on steel; it is durable but can show wear on sharp edges over time.
