The world of independent watchmaking is a colorful place with hundreds of brands all vying to create some of the most unique and wonderful watches the industry has seen. Natuarally, some brands have proven to be more successful than others, one such brand being Urwerk. Founded in 1997 by Martin Frei and Felix Baumgartner, Urwerk’s mission has always been to create Haute Horlogerie timepieces that fuse their love of traditional watchmaking with a futuristic aesthetic that seems to have been lifted straight out of a sci-fi novel. With their distinctive case shapes and signature satellite hour markers, their timepieces have become some of horology’s most sought-after watches, one such being the model we have here, the UR-100V P.02. Launched in 2021, the UR-100V P.02 expands upon Urwerk's core collection, the UR-100, in a wonderfully exciting way. Fascinated with space, everything within it and its exploration, the UR-100V P.02 swaps the UR-100V’s typical celestial-themed complications at 10 and 2 o’clock for complications that display the three phases of a space shuttle’s launch sequence and the four phases of a space shuttle’s landing sequence, respectively. Featuring the brand’s distinctive construction design, the UR-100V P.02 features a gunmetal grey DLC sandblasted stainless steel case with a titanium caseback that sports the same finish. Furthermore, the UR-100V also features the brand’s signature satellite hour markers in the same color as the case that surrounds them. Launched in 2021 in partnership with Horology Collective, as well as the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in New York this 20-piece limited edition collection has to be one of Urwerk’s most unique watches to date, and that is saying something.

Watch is in like new condition with little to no signs of use. There is an additional strap that is included with the watch.

Famed for their entirely unique and original take on watchmaking, Urkwerk has grown leaps and bounds since their debut in 1997, and it is timepieces like the UR-100V P.02 and its space shuttle launch and landing sequence complications that have earned them their revered place within independent watchmaking.
