In the URWERK tradition, none of the indications of the UR-111C watch are conventional. Never has a roller on the case performed the functions of the crown, nor have the running seconds meandered across a cluster of optical fibers. Nor would it be an authentic URWERK watch if its case didn’t look as if it had been designed by a Sci-fi passionate.
UR-111C: A world first in watchmaking, the running seconds indicator is visible as the numbers pass a cluster of optical fibers. And the UR-111C, available in 25 pieces in polished steel, 25 pieces in gunmetal steel, and 25 pieces in Black Steel and Titanium, bears many other non-traditional features as well, including a roller on the top of the case that performs the functions of the crown, jumping digital hours and minutes on rotating cones, and retrograde linear minutes. The timepiece measures 46mm at its longest point.
