URWERK the UR-1001 Zeit Device Uber Complication

Uwerk introduces the UR-100 SpaceTime model, a new philosophical watch that displays both time in hours and minutes, and space in the distance traveled. The watch belongs to Urwerk’s orbital hour satellites family, and yet it differs from the rest of the range in one significant way. The red-arrow-tipped minute hour pointer now passes beneath and between subsidiary dials, reappearing to display new astronomical indications: distance traveled on Earth and distance travelled by Earth. The dial reveals two indicators. The first one, located at...

Urwerk extends its UR-111C Collection with a brand new iteration – the UR-111C Black Cobra. The model, which was introduced back in 2018 in two case materials, matte gunmetal steel and a classic steel version, is a part of the Special Projects collection that departs from Urwerk’s signature series of wandering-hour complications. The UR-111C features two different displays of the minutes on the rollers, jumping digital hours, and optically transmitted skeletonized seconds. The new, SF-inspired timepiece takes its design cues from the UR-CC1...

Urwerk’s Special Projects collection welcomes a new addition, the highly original Urwerk UR-111C, a watch that abandons Urwerk’s signature theme of wandering-hour indications in favor of a completely unconventional display. With the new UR-111C, Urwerk aims to connect the wearer and his horological machine, to create a bond between a man and a mechanism. The watch becomes a part of its wearer, a tool that gives him information in return for energy. With this interesting concept in mind, Urwerk designed a special roller that is integrated...

On the occasion of the Dubai Watch Week, hosted by luxury watch retailers Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons, Urwerk introduces a unique and exceptional timepiece expertly engraved by the incredibly talented Florian Güllert.

In Baumgartner’...

This is how Frei, Urwerk’s co-founder and chief designer, explained the inspiration behind the Raging Gold UR-105: “There’s always this little inner voice that reminds me how much I love this metal. Beyond the march of technology, changes in fashion, new func...

In its most recent iteration, the UR-106 model is a pink lotus with a dark side. It turns a shadowy carousel encased in a matte black case, and placed under a delicate arch of deep black diamonds.

The original indications and complications illustrate that same creativity and complexity that Urwerk has been known for for almost 20 years now. The UR-106 Black Pink Lotus is built around Urwerk‘s signature satellite hours indication, based on the wandering hours principle...
