    Default New Watch for me!!!

    Hey everyone,

    So I was down in Aruba for my honeymoon and spent a day with the wife shopping for a nice everyday watch. I have a rolex stainless steel datejust with a diamond dial and bezel and also a hamilton belowzero that I put a diamond bezel on it as well. So after a long day looking at watches, I decided to get a U-boat classico chronograph. The sales guy told me that they only made 999 and mine is number 168. I absolutely love this watch and wear it every single day. He also threw in a black leather band with the deployment clasp for me at no cost. Hope you guys like the watch as much as I do.

    Great piece and congrats!

    I am actually an AD for UBoat. I hope they took care of you on pricing!!

    The Chronographs are actually called the FlightDeck from my knowledge, but beautiful piece either way!
    As everyone knows I wear anything from Patek to Panerai and AP but I still love my UBoat.. RobM still gives me crap for it.. but i just love the style and the durability!

    Thanks for all the kind words everyone. I really love this watch alot. I know its not one of the most expensive watches but I am slowly starting to build my collection. The members on here truly have some beautiful pieces and hope to one day join you guys. As for L4P, the first thing that comes to mind is AMAZING!!! This site truly is unique and filled with great information and members. I am glad to be a member on this site.

    David, I appreciate your feedback. He didnt tell me that this is a flightdeck. I went under u-boats website and my watch is listed under the classico section and not the flightdeck. Dont know much about this watch. As for the seller in Aruba, I believe he gave me a fair price. The list on the watch was $2800 and he gave me just over 30% off and included the black leather band with deployment clasp as well. I went under cavallino website and there are some beautiful pieces on there as well. Maybe one day we can do business. Thanks again for the feedback. Cheers
