Overview

U-Boat Capsule 50 SS recalls 1930s bathyspheres, with a thick, domed sapphire crystal and a round sapphire window in the side of the case.

The rounded case and thick, domed sapphire recall the viewing ports of 1930s bathyspheres, giving Capsule its steampunk appearance. A smaller circular sapphire window in the side continues the underwater theme. Inside, three overlapping black metal dial layers frame an opening through which the crown-release linkage can be seen.

This 50 mm version is made of 316L stainless steel and is limited to 200 watches. A patented lever at 10 o’clock releases the protected crown on the left. Four external screws hold the laser-engraved back in place, with a separate screwed-on serial-number plate identifying the watch.

The Swiss Sellita SW 200 automatic movement is customized to U-Boat’s specifications, with a skeletonized rotor, 26 jewels, and a 41-hour power reserve. It runs at 28,800 vibrations per hour and displays hours, minutes, seconds, and date. Brushed metal numerals and markers give the dial further texture, with beige Super-LumiNova on those details and the hands. Anti-reflective treatment coats the front sapphire crystal.

Laser-cut brown calfskin is worked and finished by hand to give the strap its naturally aged appearance. Waxed cotton stitching follows the leather, which narrows from 23 mm at the watch to 22 mm at the buckle. A steel pin buckle completes the strap, and water resistance is rated at 10 atm.

Questions & Answers

What inspired the Capsule’s shape?

The case and domed crystal recall the rounded viewing ports of 1930s bathyspheres. A circular sapphire side window and visible mechanical details continue that underwater-instrument theme.

How does the crown-release mechanism fit into the design?

A patented lever at 10 o’clock releases the protected left-side crown. An opening in the three-layer dial reveals part of the linkage, making the mechanism visible from the front.

How is this edition identified?

The reference is limited to 200 watches. A serial-number plate is screwed to the laser-engraved case back.
