Good to Know:
- Perpetual calendar with moonphase indicator
- 1 of only 50 examples known in platinum
- Featuring a hand-guilloché dial with a satin outer track and Roman numerals
- Presented in a 38mm case with classic teardrop lugs
The wristwatches produced during the rebirth of Urban Jürgensen as a brand in the 1980s and 1990s epitomize the marriage of old and new in a way that breathed fresh life into contemporary watchmaking. New owner Peter Baumberger, with his partner, the much-heralded English watchmaker Derek Pratt, set out to rebuild the brand still committed to the original tenets of technical excellence, traditional aesthetics, and handmade master craftsmanship.
Aesthetically, the present watch can be considered a pinnacle of elegance: the satin outer track with Roman numerals and simple minute divisions frame the clean guilloché center. Subtle aesthetic details, at first glance easily missed, work behind the scenes to achieve the final effect: the windows do not feature simply sloped sides, but rather are recessed inside the dial.
An ultra-slim, Fredric Piguet-based automatic perpetual calendar movement is beautifully finished with a 21 karat gold winding rotor. Featuring a perfectly proportioned 38mm platinum case with classic teardrop lugs, the present Reference 2 number 46 is one of only 50 examples known to have been manufactured in platinum.
