URWERK’s UR 101 T-Rex Arrives in a Scaly Bronze Build

by

As a diehard watch enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that the UR-101 T-Rex, straight from URWERK, is the newest member of the mighty T-Rex family. It masterfully blends daring design with groundbreaking craftsmanship, leaving me in awe!

Breaking from conventional designs, the organic guilloché pattern stretches over the open face of the case, fostering a rugged, primitive bond between its user and the timepiece. Enclosed within bronze, this innovative timepiece boasts a textured, armored scale-like exterior that sprawls across its bezel, flanks, and arms. The guilloché-etched bronze undergoes oxidation and brushing to produce a deep, vibrant finish that darkens gradually without developing a green hue over time.

Drawing inspiration from the iconic Millennium Falcon, the UR-101 T-Rex harmoniously blends aesthetics and practicality. It subtly contours to fit comfortably around the wrist, while its unconventional asymmetrical case design lends a distinct visual angle. A crown puller, similar to that of the original UR-101, further improves user experience and maintains the watch’s distinctive character.

As a gaming enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share my thoughts about the UR-101 T-Rex, powered by the advanced UR-1.01V caliber. This watch is a fresh take on URWERK’s rich technical heritage, showcasing their iconic wandering hours display. Co-founder Felix Baumgartner reminisces about the hurdles they faced in creating our early satellite time displays, which have laid the groundwork for our groundbreaking movements.

Only 100 units of the UR-101 T-Rex are being sold by URWERK for a price tag of $45,000 USD each.
