The UR-100V can be clearly seen to take its inspiration from the regular UR-100 series. The slim case and signature orbital satellite time display are all features proudly displayed on the present UR-100V Iron timepiece. The Geneva crosses suspending each of the rotating satellite hour disks are made from a beryllium-bronze alloy, while the carousel that rotates each disk is made in shot-peened aluminum. The circular brushed disks themselves, along with the baseplates, are made from an advanced antimagnetic ARCAP alloy.

The timepiece amazingly does not only indicate the time through its satellite hours and retrograde minutes, additionally two indications are featured on both sides of the dial indicating distance travelled on earth and distance travelled by earth. The additional ‘space-time’ indications won’t be of practical use in daily life, but it is Urwerk’s vision and invitation for the wearer to imagine what a space-age universe will be like.

Urwerk never ceases to attract its collectors attention with its daring, cutting-edge watches. This has been the case with the UR-100 V Iron, which introduced the companies recently upgraded self-winding cal. 12.02. The UR-100V Spacetime is a limited edition of 25 pieces in steel like the present example and is offered in excellent overall condition with its original accessories.
