New Firenze and Roma watches unveiled

U-Boat Design and Tuscan craftsmanship

Following the success of the two special edition, Italo Fontana unveils other two versions in honour of the two cities in aged bronze and in 925 silver. The original project launched by Italo Fontana and aimed at rewarding Tuscan creativity and craftsmanship, while celebrating Italian beauty and its monuments, has received the deserved success. 

The two watches literally sold like hot cakes invited the designer from Lucca to immediately propose variants of the two special creations this time in limited editions of 88 pieces each.

Prides of the finest goldsmith manufacture, testified by the impressive chisel works that fill the sides of the two cases with low reliefs, the two watches are re-proposed with new stylistic features and declined in aged bronze and one more time in 925 silver. 

Under the sapphire crystal a new dial, even more in harmony with the rest of the cases, lasered with indexes and numbers in relief, respectively in silver and bronze, replaces the two-level one of the previous models.  

The 45 mm case, in the two noble metals, saves the same features of the previous editions with, in the Florentine version, the two symbolic monuments finely reproduced, Ponte Vecchio Bridge extended in length over one entire side and the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore located on the opposite side. 

Same as above, for the Rome version in which the Colosseum has been chiselled and entirely embraces one side of the case while the faćade of St. Peter's Basilica has been reproduced on the other. 

Every one of these creations being made entirely by hand differs imperceptibly from the other and is therefore a unique piece: 1 of 88 as laser engraved on each dial. These new models by U-Boat are now available in the mono brand boutiques of Rome and Florence and on request on the official website.
