Urwerk UR-100 time and space
swiss Urwerk watches proposed a new perspective on astronomical complications.
Today, we are proud to announce that with the introduction of UR-100 SpaceTime, Urwerk has been added to the Urdinkee Shop series, which has impressive and distinctive astronomical complexity. UR-100 has two colors.
Urwerk is known for its incredible changes and imaginative complex functions, which are called time "roaming time" displays. The complex concept is simple, but it is amazing to implement. Usually, there are three discs, each with a four-hour number.
The disc is installed on the center bracket, and the circular arc showing the minutes on the dial is rotated in turn, from one minute to 60 minutes. When the 60-minute mark passes every hour, the other rotates into place and displays the next hour. The complex function is an ancient function (dating back to the middle of the 17th century). Since its establishment in 1997, Urwerk has produced an impressive series of watches that show the possibility of hovering the hour to show time (and expanded to other exotic countries) Sentimental watch form). Time display).
If you visit Urwerk's office in Geneva, you will see several excellent clocks. As you might expect, there is a small wandering clock completed in 1680 (one of the earliest known wandering small clocks), but there is also a very unusual clock, which is Geri, the father of Urwerk co-founder Felix Baumgartner Geri A gift to him, now a retired clock recoverer. At first glance, the clock seems to be a regular regulator, but it is not-it does not show the time, but it shows the number of kilometers the earth rotates on the equator every day. The clock was made by French watchmaker Gustave Sandoz, and the pendulum beats every 2.16 seconds-equivalent to a 500-meter rotation distance.HUBLOT Big Bang ONE CLICK CALAVERA CATRINA
It is this very unusual clock that became the inspiration for the new Urwerk UR-100 space-time. As Urwerk explained, SpaceTime brings the complexity of wandering time and is the basis of Gustave Sandoz's "equatorial time" watch version. The three brackets with hour dials rotate clockwise on the arc of the lower half of the dial, and the minutes are indicated by the red arrows (representing the minute hand) installed on each hour dial.
Normally, when the hour dial passes the 60-minute mark, it will disappear below the dial. However, this is not the case with UR-100 space-time. Instead, the red arrow at the top of the hour disc appears in sequence in the other two sectors. First of all, the arrow shows the number of kilometers the earth rotates on the equator in 20 minutes, totaling 555 kilometers. In the next one, it shows how many kilometers the earth has traveled along its orbit, totaling 35,740 kilometers every 20 minutes.

Urwerk's astronomical watch is updated to a matte gray case.
Urwerk is one of the most mature members of the contemporary independent watchmaking industry. Among its high-end brands at the same level, the company is one of the oldest companies, founded by watchmaker Felix Baumgartner (Flix Baumgartner) and designer Martin Frei (1997) Founded and is the most consistently recognized company, maintaining its uncompromising space age vision year for 23 consecutive years. The latest result of the cooperation between the two parties is the UR-100, which debuted in September last year, decomposing Urwerk's traditional look (if any) into a more fashionable look, but still a powerful representative of the product. Brands are eager to bring new perspectives to changes in time and space.www.chrono36.com
We are very pleased to introduce a new version of Urwerk UR-100, which is finished with sandblasting and a warm gray GunMetal PVD case. The resulting appearance is completely matte, adding a practical feel of the tool table, in stark contrast with the distinctive avant-garde design, focusing all attention on the unique timing and astronomical display.

Urwerk UR-100 is short for Urwerk's first two versions UR-101 and UR-102. It is also a tribute to the 19th century pendulum clock owned by Baumgartner's father. This antique clock is not meant to pass the time. Instead, it uses a retrograde display to calculate the distance (in kilometers) that the earth rotates about its axis on the equator. It was originally built by French watchmaker Gustave Sandoz for use at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair and is now located in Urwerk's Geneva headquarters.
How Urwerk UR-100 leads Sandoz's creation is very simple. It uses the same wandering time and satellite time display that are known to modern brands, but it reveals the inner workings of the movement to highlight the entire 360-degree range of motion of the unique carousel system, thereby proposing two new celestial complexity . The process of first application in a watch.swiss made replicas watches
The three-arm carousel is made of aluminum and protrudes from the central pinion of the watch to form three separate pyramid structures that display a new bright green every three hours. Each structure has a total of four hours. Although the carousel itself is hollow to some extent, 11 unused numbers are blocked by the snake bridge. A small red hand is exposed at the end of each arm, bending down to slide around the entire dial after 3 hours of rotation of the turntable. This is the basis of a standard roaming time system used by other brands for many years, where time is indicated by a digital pyramid that gradually crosses the minute track, which is visible in the lower part of the dial. The result looks complicated, it actually has more features than it seems, and the reading time is simple at a glance. For example only, the current time in the figure below is approximately 10:01.
After a complete hour, the hand that is actively displaying the time disappears under a large shield, and a novice starts at the zero mark to indicate the beginning of the new hour. After entering the shield first-hand, what happened was that the UR-100 was so striking in time, space, and astronomy, because the typical roaming hour system hides unused pyramids. A moment later, the pointer appeared again in a small opening to indicate the first celestial complication: the distance the earth rotates on its axis, just like on Sandoz's clock. This 20-minute scale is located between 9 o'clock and 11 o'clock on the display of a traditional watch, highlighting that the wearer rotates 555 kilometers when standing on the equator. At the same time the original hand is making this measurement, the third hand is facing the other side, usually near the dial at two o'clock. The third hand calculates the distance of the earth orbiting the sun, which is about 35,740 kilometers every 20 minutes.replica Bremont JAGUAR MKII watches
Urwerk said that to implement UR-100, it takes two years of research and development time, UR-100 has Urwerk movement 12.01, this is an automatic movement, contains some interesting technology and materials. Sapphire crystal back cover (UR-100 is Urwerk’s first display of its clockwork system in the watch) The first thing worth noting is the brand’s full rotor design, which uses an unconventional planetary flat turbine system to reduce opportunities Excessive winding or abrasion of the movement. Urwerk describes this design as Windfäng, which translates from Swiss German into the effective meaning “air trap”. The rotor and titanium back can be seen from the back of the watch, while the three bottom plates around the carousel system and the three bottom plates visible from the front of the watch are made of ARCAP, a unique alloy that Urwerk prefers for many years. ARCAP is a mixture of metals such as nickel, copper, cobalt and zinc, which makes UR-100 increase its resistance to temperature and magnetic changes (due to lack of iron) and high tensile strength.
When it was announced last fall, two very specific details about UR-100 immediately caught the attention of Urwerk enthusiasts: the case design (with a unique octagonal form) and the price of the watch, which marked a new entry for UR-100 point. The highly restricted Urwerk catalog. The octahedral case made of stainless steel and titanium is undoubtedly a creation of Urwerk, and is absolutely unconventional compared to traditional watch designs. The UR-100 provides a more reasonable wearing experience than any other Urwerk to date, with an accurate diameter of 41mm and a thickness of 14mm. The crown is located at 12 o'clock, which is another innovation of Urwerk, because the logo engraved with the "UR" logo is a new design, which debuted with the watch last fall.replica Richard Mille RM 11-03 Watches
