Just jumped on the Boat!

[SirLoki]

Well i knew it would only be a matter of time but i finally decided on pulling the trigger on a 45-AS1.

and for those who might be familiar with U-Boat:

I am not truely familiar yet with all the variances but the one i picked up has only "U-BOAT" on the top of the dial with a small Italo Fontana and under the ruby jewel it says Made in Italy. Can anyone shed some light on this? im not questioning the authenticity at all since it was purchased from an AD but just curious because i see some with "IFO", "Left hook" etc.... the kicker i liked is it serial #0006, i thought that was cool. Heres a crappy iphone pic for now until i get home and take a real shot but so far im liking it and the dial and big numbers are refreshing.
