Urwerk's iconic Ur-103 refines the definition of horology. The futuristic aesthetic and the bold application of robust new materials, the dark Arcap allows the satellite hours to rotate and orbit seamlessly. The new crystal gives the wearer full view of the satellites, since the movement appears to mimic spiders crawling across the dial, hence the nickname Tarantula. The calibre Ur-33, possesses a unique fine tune feature that was designed to pay tribute to Abraham-Louis Breguet. This allows the user to adjust the watch's regulation to adapt to their lifestyle such as relaxation, sports, or other activities. The present lot is limited to 60 pieces, and it is preserved in very good condition.
