The UR-110 is a watch with attitude. From the base of its unusual asymmetrical case to the three arrow-shaped "torpedoes" flying in formation with the mission of indicating the time, the UR-110 has serious attitude.

Enveloped in a secure titanium case, planetary gearing keeps the three hour satellites in parallel formation as they take turns to indicate the time as they pass the 60-minute track. An "Oil Change" indicator alerts the user when it is time for a service; a "Day/Night" indicator helps keep track of changing time zones; and twin turbines on the back minimize wear in the automatic winding system.
The UR-110 continues URWERK's radical tradition of telling the time using orbiting satellite complications. In the UR-110, the time is always shown on the right side of the watch. The satellites follow a vertical line, graded from 0 to 60 minutes, in a downward motion. The ingenuity of this layout lies in allowing the wearer to view the time discreetly and elegantly without the need to pull a cuff or sleeve back.

The UR-110 is a timepiece in which its technology can be appreciated though the large panoramic sapphire crystal. As well as indicating the hours and minutes, the UR-110 also features a Control Board on the dial side with indicators for "Day/Night" and "Oil Change" - URWERK's service interval display, as well as small seconds on a sub dial.

The colour of metals prevail on the dial, a colour given pride of place on the predominately titanium case. The UR-110 is sober with few frills; its ornaments only apparent in the subtle perfection of its fine finishing. Turning the watch over, the titanium back encloses the innovative automatic winding system regulated by dual turbines.

The UR-110, micro-mechanics have never looked so good!

  • @GLaDOSsMailerDaemon damn straight :D 

  • @hristijank2 There's no way you're saying that just to:

    1) Be a rebel

    2) Feel smug about disliking a very expensive thing

    What you said is most definitely an honest, straightforward opinion.

  • It only cost $81,600.00

  • can anybody tell me how do they fabricate those small gears??

  • watch porn :D

  • Fukin Genius!!!

  • oh i think ive just shit myself.

  • Anyone that comments about not being able to tell time from this amazing creation doesn't deserve to own a watch.

    Seriously, if you can't read the time on this, you can't read time on a cheap digital watch either. It's laid out right in front of you for god sake.

  • Imagine losing it.
