This watch is crafted from stainless steel IP black, retaining the original case shape and size. The small stainless steel case measures approximately 33mm in diameter, but even with the crown cap, it measures approximately 44mm. Even with the crown cap large, the size is calculated to be easy for special forces to use.

The Buships watch was developed for the U.S. Navy's UDT underwater demolition team in the 1940s. This faithful, easy-to-use reproduction of this distinctively shaped watch is a delight to the eye. While the small body and large crown cap may seem unbalanced at first glance, the large crown cap provided essential waterproofing for underwater operations at the time. Seventy years after its development, the UDT evolved into the U.S. Navy SEALs, and its retro design has become a perennial favorite among military watches. Its unique shape has earned it the nickname "Cantain" (water bottle), a perennial favorite. The UDT's mission was to sneak out of the water and set explosives to eliminate obstacles that hindered the landing of subsequent allies. Therefore, even if captured in enemy territory, they reportedly carried no identifying materials. In reality, there were no black-colored Buships. "Black Ops" is an abbreviation of "black operation," meaning unofficial operations. The stainless steel case is black IP coated, with a black dial and white indexes.
This model offers unparalleled visibility. Since the IP Black model doesn't exist, the name "Unofficial Operation" is fitting. The strap is made of black cloth. Please note that the color will fade with use. The threads may fray.
