URWERK UR-106 “Lotus”

Posted on by

Established by Felix Baumgartner and Martin Frei in 1997, independent Swiss watch brand URWERK creates technical masterpieces for men. Now the brand unveils the UR-106 “Lotus”, a feminine avatar of URWERK’s high complex wristwatch collection.

With its glittering gemstones and soft curves, the UR-106 “Lotus” features the brand’s signature satellite hours in a guise never before seen. Three satellite hours wander across the dial to create the most graphic of horological blooms.

The UR-106 “Lotus” comes in two versions: one is in titanium and steel with diamonds on the bezel, crown and buckle; its antithesis is in black PVC-coated titanium and steel set with black diamonds.

The UR-106 Lotus features a revised version of the satellite hours. Three satellites, each with four hour numerals, sweep along the minutes scale in an analogue and digital indication of time. A moonphase adds to the display.
