URWERK's giant wheel of rolling time, the UR-111C automatic luxury cheap Watches wants you to seize the moment
When it comes to Swiss independent watch brand URWERK, many people now think of Iron Man Robert Downey Jr.'s favorite watch. It looks like a space ship and uses Carrousel's time display method using satellite rotation. , avant-garde style is the direction URWERK marks for advanced watchmaking. After 21 years of development, from the bleak business in the early days to the present unique style, the two founders Felix Baumgartner and Martin Frei have always insisted on following their own path. The way of displaying time is their perspective on time. The operating mechanism reflects the watch and human interaction.
Just like the new model replica urwerk watches UR-111C automatic watch brought by Martin, which has breakthroughs in time display and winding mechanism, it is still a challenge for the 17 brand watchmakers who already know that the two bosses have their own persistence. When it comes to the movement, it can be regarded as inheriting the concept of UR-CC1 King Cobra. It was inspired by the linear time watch created by master Louis Cottier for Patek Philippe in 1958. The upper half of the dial of both UR-111C and UR-CC1 is The second hand and the lower half display the hours and minutes. However, the UR-CC1 hours and minutes are displayed on a linear time axis, while the UR-111C this time has a rolling display in addition to linearity: the left is a jumping hour, and the middle is a straight line. Minutes display, with a scrolling minute display on the right.
Not only that, when Martin designed the UR-111C, in order to have another visual effect, he placed the central linear minute scale at a diagonal angle to the window. Therefore, he also had to redesign the fluorescent roller, because it rotates once an hour. The circle is not 360 degrees but 300 degrees. After 60 minutes, the URWERK fluorescent mark will tighten a long spring ring at the same time. Then turn 60 degrees to make the fluorescent mark jump back to the starting point and push the hour numbers. Martin said in an interview that using such a linear minute display is a return to the emphasis on the current minutes and seconds. If the traditional pointer rotates in a circle, will the way you plan time be restricted in hours? replica Breitling AVENGER B01 USN
Furthermore, this is why URWERK placed the second hand display in the center this time, especially using two skeletonized second wheels made by photolithography electroforming (LIGA) technology on the upper part of the case: one is 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60, and the other is 5, 15, 25, 35, 45 and 55. The second display is very clear and fluid. This effect and technology is the first in the watch industry. And fully express the connotation that URWERK wants to emphasize the passage of time.
On the other hand, URWERK cares about the interaction between the watch owner and the watch, which is reflected in the UR-111C automatic watch, which replaces the crown function with a roller in the middle of the case. Therefore, unlike traditional watches with a crown at 3 o'clock, nor like other URWERK watches with a large crown at 12 o'clock, a precise gear system is used to connect an embedded case surface and The parallel fluted roller on the winding stem can wind the watch by gently rolling it with your thumb. The power reserve is 48 hours. As for adjusting the time, you need to pull out the handle from the side of the watch. This design also appears in URWERK watches (such as EMC with a small meter function, but the handle is for power supply), and the adjustment is full of feel. The new winding mode is another communication ritual with your favorite watch.
