The present reference is the Urwerk UR-101 T-Rex Edition, a sculptural and primal creation released as an exclusive limited edition of 100 pieces.<\/p>\n
Its case measures 41 mm in diameter and 11.86 mm in thickness, crafted from bronze featuring an intricate hand-painted guilloch\u00e9 scale pattern reminiscent of prehistoric reptilian hide. The case architecture is fitted with an arched sapphire crystal over the reading aperture, a black PVD-coated steel caseback, a steel and PEEK crown puller, and is pressure-tested to 30 metres.<\/p>\n
The display features Urwerk\u2019s wandering hours indication, utilizing two satellites that traverse a sweeping 180-degree minute arch. Both the hour numerals and the minute track are treated with Super-LumiNova for optimal legibility in low light.<\/p>\n
Powering the watch is the Calibre UR-1.01V, built on a high-grade automatic Vaucher base paired with Urwerk\u2019s proprietary wandering-hour module. Operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz) with 28 jewels, the movement delivers a 48-hour power reserve.<\/p>\n
The timepiece is completed by an integrated black rubber strap embossed with a textile effect, lined in black calfskin, and secured by a black DLC-treated steel pin buckle. Combining an organic, hand-crafted bronze exterior with avant-garde mechanical timekeeping, the UR-101 T-Rex Edition stands as a bold and distinctive expression of independent horology.<\/p>\n
