The Urwerk UR-202S Hammerhead is a striking example of Urwerk’s visionary approach to contemporary horology. Introduced in the early 2010s, the UR-202 series marked a significant evolution of the brand’s satellite display concept, further refining both its technical sophistication and bold design language.
Crafted in titanium, the watch features a semi-skeletonised architecture that showcases Urwerk’s hallmark revolving satellite hours, with the distinctive hammer-shaped arms giving rise to its “Hammerhead” nickname. The display is further enriched by indications for moon phases and day and night, enhancing its technical depth while reinforcing its cosmic inspiration.
Produced in a limited series of approximately 25 examples, the UR-202S remains highly exclusive, capturing the essence of Urwerk’s creative identity through its combination of mechanical ingenuity and unmistakable aesthetic.
