Urwerk UR103 Hexagon
2008 addition to "Black" limited edition series.

Urwerk's creators Martin Frei and Felix Baumgartner both share a strong affinity with the color black. As a result, ever since Urwerk's creation in 1997, the company has reserved the privilege of celebrating each new collection by dressing 10 timepieces in black.

This year Urwerk is introducing the UR103 Hexagon. The masculine lines of its angular satellites – in stark contrast to the soft curves of the classical 103 models – reinforce the sensation of an emanating force within. In the dark, the luminescent SuperLumiNova marking the hours and minutes, indicate the time in an icy-cool menthol blue.
