The dial consists of three superimposed discs with the last layer made of a laser cut fine wire mesh in stainless steel which allows the movement to be half-seen.

U-BOAT means always innovation and Italo added an extra patented fourth counter on the dial showing the 24 hours of the day and marked by a little bronze hand. Under the optic thick and flat sapphire glass on the back of the case, ready to be admired is the U-77 Valjoux Top Soignè automatic mechanical movement, modified and personalized to U-BOAT specifications.
