URWERK
UR-100V
Birth of UR-100V Times Culture Series
Writing time, transcribing the intangible, giving substance to the time gone by. This has been one of the "impossible tasks" assigned to the Masters of Time for thousands of years. From the pyramids of the city of Ur to the sundial from China and the lunar calendar carved into the rock, they constantly use their genius, creativity and even combative spirit to witness the passage of time and time. Today, URWERK pays tribute to this quasi-hero with a new 100V Time and Culture collection. Hence, this pattern is repeated on the copper-colored dome of the UR-100V Time and Culture I. The result is very refined. The milling cutter for engraving has a 0.05 mm thin tip. Therefore, the work must be viewed with a magnifying glass to appreciate its precision. The ridges of the pattern are satin-brushed, while the cutouts are micro-sandblasted for a velvety finish that accentuates the volume and honors this priceless heritage.

Beauty, history and mysticism are intertwined. Knowing that the inspiration for the piece came from Singapore further reinforces the universal significance of this new URWERK. Su Jiaxian, better known by his acronym SJX, pitched Felix Baumgartner and Martin Frei an idea three years ago: close the top like the first version of the UR-103, adding an extra dimension to the UR-100, from Literally and figuratively create something special that transcends space and time. The UR-100V Time and Culture I thus established itself in Central America. Felix Baumgartner, co-founder of URWERK, added: “There are several keys to this timepiece, first of all its apparent universality: it is inspired by Aztec culture; it is made in Switzerland and based on ideas in Singapore ; it will end up in the window of a retailer of unknown nationality, and it will appeal to equally unknown watch lovers. However, it also hides some secrets. We have added hidden references to our work. The discerning will Can identify signatures, acronyms, Mayan numbers to decipher. It's a real treasure hunt."
On this UR-100V from the Time and Culture series, a new message has been added to the hour and minute display. Once the 60th minute has passed, the minute hand disappears and reappears as a kilometer counter. It accounts for 524.89 kilometers traveled every 20 minutes by anyone located in Mexico. This is the average speed of the Earth's rotation calculated in Mexico City. On the other side of the spectrum, the Earth is shown orbiting the sun at 35,742 kilometers every 20 minutes. On the surface of the UR-100V, hours and kilometers thus have the same status, the same value scale. These units light up with an incandescent blue light when the time is read.
100V's new series, dedicated to perceiving time through eras and cultures, is named Time and Culture. "This thread is about history, culture, our place under the stars, research and observations made around the world using the same sky above us as a source of knowledge. I'm always fascinated by seeing these unique observations, URWERK co-founder Martin Frei explains.-100V, combined with indications in minutes and kilometers, proved to be the ideal vehicle.

Around 1479, the first leg of the 100V Time and Culture Line takes us to the land of Central America. The pediment of this timepiece is decorated with a motif of the “Sun Stone,” one of the most emblematic works of Aztec art, now preserved in the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. The boulder is a carved disc with a diameter of about 3.6 meters. Majestic. Lots of. This masterpiece references the Aztec calendar, with the third circle representing the 20 days of the month and the fourth circle representing the 260 days of the year.
