URWERK UR-100V MAGIC T "HUNTER GREEN"
Embrace a new paradigm of elegance with the debut of the UR - 100V 'Hunter Green' edition. Its refined ash-green hue, delicately kissed by a faint metallic sheen, unfolds a narrative of understated luxury.
The UR - 100V takes us on a time-space journey, merging URWERK's core concepts. It features the iconic satellite display, but with a difference. Once the minute pointers on hour satellites vanish, they move between subsidiary dials to show astronomical indications.
Transcends the traditional function of a time telling device. It is equipped with two specialised counters: one that indicates the 555 km distance the Earth traverses within a 20 minutes period during its rotation, and the other, the 35,740 km displacement during its 20 minutes revolution around the Sun.
The 'Hunter Green' edition extends beyond the realm of horological craftsmanship, serving as a witness to Earth's cosmic trajectory and inaugurating a novel chromatic exploration within URWERK's developmental trajectory.

Martin Frei, the artistic director of URWERK, posits that the UR - 100V serves as a medium for boundless exploration. 'Hunter Green' is a vivid chromatic element that engages with both light and time. Felix Baumgartner, the master horologist, further elaborates that the metallic ash-green hue was meticulously crafted, endowing the timepiece with an industrial-organic aesthetic, accentuating the dial's depth while preserving the allure of titanium.
The 'Hunter Green' edition
retains the fundamental essence of the 100v collection, integrating visual simplicity with advanced horological techniques. Martin Frei conceives unique geometric forms, and Felix Baumgartner innovates the satellite - type wandering-hours mechanism. It is inspired by a 17th-century timekeeping device, this mechanism has been elevated to a new echelon by URWERK, delving into the exploration of space-time relationships.
