The present reference is the Urwerk UR-120 \u201cSpock\u201d, an avant-garde interpretation of time display that combines futuristic design with Urwerk\u2019s signature satellite-hour system.<\/p>\n
Its sculptural case measures 47 mm in width, 44 mm in length, and 15.8 mm in height, crafted from sandblasted titanium and steel. The case features hinged lugs, a covered crown at 12 o\u2019clock, a curved sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, and a sapphire and titanium caseback. Water resistance is rated to 30 metres.<\/p>\n
The signature satellite display presents the hours through rotating satellites mounted on planetary gears. Each hour satellite is formed by splitting cubes that open as they travel across the dial, while the minutes are indicated on a curved track. Luminous markings and numerals ensure clear legibility.<\/p>\n
Powering the watch is the automatic Calibre UR-20.01, equipped with Urwerk\u2019s Windf\u00e4nger airscrew-regulated rotor. Operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, the movement contains 32 jewels and provides a 48-hour power reserve. Its components are finished with circular and straight graining, sandblasting, C\u00f4tes de Gen\u00e8ve, and polished screws.<\/p>\n
The UR-120 is completed by a black calf-leather strap embossed with a ballistic-fibre pattern and secured by a pin buckle.<\/p>\n
