SOTTOMARINO Italia IL CAPO

By TLex Who said all Italian dive watch design was beautiful?! Sottomarino Italia have a large range of watches that includes a number 100m rated pseudo-divers; most of their models either closely mimic watches from other manufacturers (CERAMICO = Arctos GPW, GABBIANO = Hanhart Primus) or are a little off the wall.



Their latest edition the IL CAPO, while toyish in appearance is at least original (i think) and has quite a cool look to it. It also has 200m water-resistance. Other specs include a 46mm stainless steel case, screw-down crown, hardened mineral crystal and a Japanese quartz chronograph movement. Would it make a fun beater for 275 dollars?
