Available in chronograph and solotempo versions, the CAPSOIL watch whose electro-mechanics is completely immersed in an oil bath revolutionises the concept of U-BOAT creations while retaining the brand’s strong exclusive personality.
The oily liquid, surrounding the dial, transforms it into an absolute black, making it three dimensional and deep. This fluid creates an ever-moving compensation bubble, as well as a surprisingly amplified view of the hands, which seem to float free as in absence of the glass.
The 45 mm diameter case, in the two steel versions, one with black DLC treatment, blends with the highest quality convex sapphire, from which beige spheres and indexes treated with
superluminova emerge.
Hermetic resistance at a pressure of 10 ATM is guaranteed by the back case fastened with screw and featuring a smoked mineral glass. The watch is finally equipped with a leather strap with innovative water-repellent lining, handcrafted by expert Florentine artisans.
