The modern iteration of Urban Jürgensen was established in the 1970s, creating wristwatches inspired by the elegant simplicity of mid-century Danish design. This aesthetic is beautifully exemplified in the ref. 1140, showcasing the understated refinement that characterizes Urban Jürgensen.
The current offering of the ref. 1140 is grounded in the model’s iconic design, featuring a white gold case and a highly sought-after salmon dial. This dial distinguishes itself from standard guilloché options with its unique grainy texture, adding an extra layer of depth to its overall aesthetic.

Flawless in execution and captivating in design, the dial and hands blend together with effortless elegance.
For collectors who appreciate discreet and cultured timepieces, this example, numbered 2 out of a limited edition of 20, is offered in exceptional condition and embodies the ethos of this esteemed watchmaker.
