Est. $160,000-$165,000 Urwerk UR 202 Solid 18K White Gold Automatic Men's Watch W/Black Leather Band (Comes W/Box & Papers) - This handsome investment quality timepiece is the UR-202 men's automatic watch. This piece features Urwerk's patented Revolving Satellite complication, with telescopic minute hands which display time using telescopic minutes hands operating through the middle of three orbiting and revolving hours satellites. The telescopic minutes hands precisely adjust their length to follow the three sectors marking the minutes; 0-14, 15-44, 45-60, and extended they enable the UR-202 to display the time across a large easy-to-read dial. While the hands are retracted, they allow for a wearable and comfortably sized case. The UR-202 is the worldÕs first watch with the winding rate regulated by fluid dynamics, as the traditional rotating vanes of the past have been replaced by cutting-edge miniature twin turbines (miniature air compressors) which can be seen spinning on the back of the watch. The twin turbines are coupled with the winding rotor, and according to the position of the selector lever, act as shock absorbers. This unique and rare piece features the calibre UR 7.02 automatic winding movement with this special twin turbine regulation. The watch also features: 46.6mm x 43.5mm solid 18k white gold case, ARCAP P40 dial with carousel mirror polished by a diamond cutter, super luminova treatment on hour and minute markers, moon phase indicator and day/night indicator and black leather band with 18k white gold deployment clasp. This stunning timepiece is an incredibly rare find and is truly a must have for any watch enthusiast. The watch measures 10" in length and will come housed in a Urwerk box with papers.
