Brand vibe
VeriWatch is a revived Italian dive-watch brand from Bari, originally founded in 1956 by Giulio Capezzuto and brought back in 2021 by Alessandro Leali. The 1970s Octopus is their Swiss-made medical diver with a pulsometer, (produced in collaboration with Squale). It's the brand's icon, and today's catalogue is a philological re-edition of that watch: 38mm Sellita SW200-1, 200m water resistance, SuperLuminova BGW9, Italian-made Seacult and MilanoStraps straps. Niche, vintage-faithful, and unmistakably Pugliese.

Not enough information for a duty figure
The fields above are reported facts. None of them establishes customs origin: that depends on the watch's tariff classification and a substantial-transformation analysis, and what you actually pay also depends on the seller's shipping and duty-payment terms. Ask the seller for the country of origin and whether duties are collected at checkout, and confirm rates against official sources.
