Overview

The 45 mm U-Boat Capsoil SS has a black dial immersed in oil, with an air bubble that drifts across it as your wrist moves.

The oil-filled dial

Oil around the black metal dial adds visual depth and makes the domed sapphire crystal above it seem to disappear. Once charged by light, Super-LumiNova on the hands and hour markers helps you read the time in the dark.

The Swiss quartz movement sits in the same oil bath as the dial. The bubble is there by design, leaving room for the oil to expand and contract as the temperature changes. When the watch is off your wrist, U-Boat specifies a temperature range of 32–140°F (0–60°C).

Rooted in a 1942 naval design

The left-side crown comes from Ilvo Fontana’s 1942 plans for an Italian Navy watch that was never built. His grandson Italo revived the design in Lucca. On the Capsoil, the crown screws down.

The details

The 45 mm case is 316L stainless steel and water-resistant to 100 meters. The screw-down case back has a mineral crystal window.

The black rubber strap measures 22 mm at the lugs and closes with a steel pin buckle. The watch is made in Italy.

Questions & Answers

Why does a bubble move across the dial?

The bubble is an intentional part of the oil-filled construction. It leaves room for the oil to change volume with temperature and moves as the watch changes position.

How should I store the watch when I am not wearing it?

Keep it within U-Boat’s stated 0–60 °C range, away from prolonged direct sunlight, heat sources, and large temperature changes.
