Condition Report: Very good pre-loved condition. Swiss automatic movement is running smoothly and keeping proper time. Sapphire crystal is clear and pristine. The carbon fiber layer beneath the matte dial remains sharp with strong contrast. The matte black PVD coating exhibits light, clean wear around the outer rim and lugs, free of deep gouges or structural damage. Exhibition glass is scratch-free; original Italian factory text (VETRO ZAFFIRO, ACCIAIO 316-L, AUTOMATICO, 53mm) is fully crisp and legible. Original U-Boat textured strap is sturdy, flexible, and holds its shape well. The signed black PVD buckle and rubber keeper function perfectly.
