U-Boat Classico U-47 AB1 with the reference 9160 — made in Italy.
Ilvo Fontana, a skilled craftsman specializing in precision instruments, received a prestigious commission from the Italian Navy. He was tasked with designing a new watch for their pilots. This challenge had to meet the Navy's high quality standards and very precise technical specifications, but above all, it had to guarantee maximum visibility and reliability under any lighting or weather conditions. However, unfortunate circumstances at that time prevented this from happening. In the year 2000, Italo Fontana, Ilvo's grandson, discovered the precious designs, which became his inspiration for the first U-Boat watch.
