A material-driven take on everyday elegance.
The Classico 42 Tungsten brings U-BOAT’s unmistakable design into a more refined proportion. Its polished tungsten bezel adds a distinctive presence, combining exceptional hardness with a clean, architectural aesthetic.
We like the balance of contrasts: a bold Italian case design, Swiss automatic mechanics and a dial built for clarity. It is a watch that feels purposeful rather than overstated.
We carry it for clients who want something different from traditional luxury—technical, distinctive and designed to stand apart.
A Swiss automatic calibre shaped to U-BOAT specifications.
The Swiss automatic movement is customised to U-BOAT technical specifications and features a skeletonised rotor showcasing the brand’s mechanical approach. It beats at 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz), with a 41-hour power reserve and 26 jewels.
Built for reliability and everyday wear, the calibre reflects U-BOAT’s philosophy of combining strong engineering with distinctive design details.

A relationship, not a transaction.
Every watch we sell stays close to us. We organise servicing, source straps, and answer the telephone ourselves — for as long as the watch is yours, and the wrist after that.
When the time comes, we arrange the full service through U-Boat and handle the shipping both ways.
Replacement straps and bracelets at cost, in any material the manufacture offers, fitted in person at the bench.
You speak to Jason — for a warranty question, a service interval, or simply a second opinion — for as long as you own the watch.
Hold it once. Turn it over.
A watch makes more sense in the hand than on a screen — particularly through the sapphire back. Book a viewing at 900 West Hastings St., Vancouver and we will put a loupe in your hand.
