Absolutely lovin' this dial. The strap is pretty cool too! It looks like a rubber shell with leather inserted down the center. Not likin' so much the canteen crown guard and pusher set-up on the left side of the case. LARGE watch.

50mm with a canteen cover to the crown that adds another 10mm or so. Shocked

Kind of a reverse stealth idea happening with this U-Boat ! U-Boat... 803574
There is that great black IP, and then the unique white, or
cream dial. VERY cool !!! I like the way the numbers seem
to be almost carved out by the way. This is SOME KIND of
WATCH !!!

Here are some similar ones which everyone probably already
knows about..

Like U-boat but its one of those cases that is easy to replicate and there are a ton of replicas out there, i'm sure this one is the real deal because the movement looks great! They are some major coin!!

Not doing much for me. The sandwich dial would really stand out if there were another color layer. The whole canteen crown thing makes the watch impractical for me to even wear. And any plating not bonded at the molecular level is a red flag. Will have to take a flyer on this one.
