 I saw this watch in a store while on a business trip and had to have it. After some negotiation with the jewelry store owner (a WIS himself) I was able to get a good deal on it. I've never owned a watch this big (my biggest being the Sea Angler), but it really doesn't feel any bigger on the wrist. I've been wearing it for the last week and have no complaints. It does draw a lot of attention. Since I've been wearing it I haven't been near a person that hasn't commented on the watch. If you don't like to draw attention, this is not the watch for you. Definitely a conversation starter.

Watch Description:

U-Boat Flightdeck Serie CAB

Movement: ETA 7750, Frequency 28,800 alternations/hour

Crown: Left side crown with security device

Case: Steel AISI 316L, IP treatment, 50mm diameter

Dial: Black with yellow hands and spheres

Water Resistance: 10 ATM

Glass: Specially cut ultra dimension in highly resistance K1 glass

Strap: Calf leather, hand made in Italy

Below are some pictures (I apologize for the fingerprints on the glass, this is my first time posting pictures of my watches. Lesson learned, clean watch before taking pictures):
