Italo Fontana launches a new version of Classico Tungsten: the "Long Window".

Constantly passioned by the Classico model, one of his first iconic designs, Italo Fontana, founder and designer of U-BOAT, decided to rejuvenate it at the beginning working on the case material.
He added a bezel in Tungsten, more specifically tungsten carbide, the strongest natural metal to the 45 mm satin and hand finish 316L AISI stainless steel of the case. Commonly used in electrical and military applications, a small amount of tungsten can significantly increase the strength of an alloy, making the watch always polished and "unscratchable".
In this new model, Italo focused his creativity on the change of stylistic details on the black dial. Along with luminescent beige hands and markers of few hours (4,8,12), the watch boasts on the dial a long vertical window showing the date of today as well as yesterday and tomorrow and still on the dial an additional counter showing the anti and post meridian.
The see-through case back is protected by transparent sapphire crystal skillfully cut with U shape of U-BOAT allowing to admire the movement.
Last but not least the Innovative and patented crown release system at 8 o’clock for easy time and date setting.
