For the last 20 years, Urwerk has been pushing the boundaries of traditional watchmaking. The market was taken by storm when the firm introduced the revolving satellites with telescopic minute hands extensions to indicate the time. The watch inspired the nickname “Hammerhead” for its unusual case design.


Cased in platinum, the present example is from the early days and limited to 20 pieces only.
