The movement of the oil on your wrist extends its three dimensional finish further while giving a strange illusion of the absence of glass. It is here that the oil filling the case creates an absolute black finish at the centre, promising an even more intense black than any ordinary dial. The Lucca-based watch manufacturer’s Oil Immersion concept meets the Doppiotempo complication on the dial of each U-Boat Capsoil Doppio Tempo watch. This also allows for quick battery replacement in spite of the oil-immersed interior. Lastly, like all Capsoil models, the U-Boat Capsoil Doppio Tempo watches are safely assured a 100 metre water resistant rating helped by an innovative locking system on the case back. The first crown allows you to set the time and date while the second is for adjusting the dual-time function and the rotating internal bezel for keeping track of a second time zone. The two crowns placed at the left hand position are used to control the timekeeping functions laid out on the dial. Both are equipped with high quality domed sapphire crystal glass and a black vulcanized rubber strap embossed with the U-Boat logo and secured by a pin buckle finished in its corresponding case material. The cases measure to 45mm in diameter and are available in two colourways, the first in stainless steel (reference 8769) and the second in satin-finished black DLC (reference 8770). ![]() The case of the new U-Boat Capsoil Doppio Tempo watches are distinctively Capsoil in their construction, neglecting the chunky bezels and large left-hand crowns of their other designs and opting for a slim, almost invisible bezel, slender down-turned lugs and two subtle crowns. Today, these elements of past and present unite for the U-Boat Capsoil Doppio Tempo. ![]() This ground-breaking concept not only effortlessly lubricates the movement but provides an unmissable dial layout with ink-black colouring, a three-dimensional finish and a wandering compensation bubble. On the other end of the spectrum is the U-Boat Capsoil, an inevitably modern watch first seen in 2019 with a mechanism and dial completely immersed in an oil bath. Since then, it’s dual time function – which suitably translates to “Doppiotempo” in Italian – has remained a constant in the brand’s collections offering essential tools for even the most intrepid endeavour, military or otherwise. The U-Boat Doppiotempo was originally launched back in 1938 for the Italian army’s parachute assault regiment, the Col Moschin. On trend is the new U-Boat Capsoil Doppio Tempo watch collection, a duo of designs which combines the DNA of a 1930’s watch with one of the brand’s best-selling modern-day models. Their Italian craftsmanship is influenced primarily by founder Italo Fontana who seeks to shape and evolve their current collections into something new and unique. A luxury watch brand reputed for their creativity and technological prowess is U-Boat. ![]()
