The URWERK UR-200 series is getting new heights: with cal king variable geometry turbines, lesser sibling shock absorbers and a hybrid rotating system, the UR-7. 30th movement spreads the wings of URWERK’s mechanical options.
This UR-230 " Eagle" also acquired physical modifications, including the progress a CTP carbon fiber cover with a removable cover, and also aerodynamic lines, a leaner profile and Raptor-like measurements. The UR-230 " Hawk" is a highly sophisticated and extremely popular animal.
The 200 Series plays host to a new generation: the UR-230. This " Eagle" will be distinguished by its physical appearance, design and mechanics. The newest member of the URWERK loved ones is equipped with satellite display, walking around hours and retrograde short minutes, thanks to engine upgrades as well as high-tech modifications: " A decade after the success of the UR-220, we hope that URWERK co-founder and master watchmaker Felix Baumgartner explains: “The UR-230 “Eagle” is performance-focused. The actual turbine that is one of the characteristics of URWERK has been more improved. Today we start a model whose potency is enhanced by technological innovation. "
The newest UR-230 " Eagle" holds the display concept of often the UR-220. It is a sophisticated model of URWERK’s signature twisting satellite complication. On the three-arm turntable, each rotating wedge carries the four-hour amount. They roll along any 120-degree fan, with the current-hour surface pointing toward the actual observer. To display the a few minutes, these display cubes are usually embedded in aluminum 3D IMAGES retrograde hands. At the end of the particular 60-minute journey, the skeletonized hand returns to list 0, responsible for displaying typically the cube for the next hour. Frank Frei, Art Director and also Co-Founder of URWERK, mentioned: “We are proud for you to introduce the UR-230, the newest member of our iconic Sequence 200 launched in 2006-2007, alongside the UR-201 ‘Hammerhead’. Since then, our constant search for innovation has led us to help rethink the collection while maintaining its dynamism and electrical power. We developed the concept of Ttacker Elegance in different contexts. We all created the Maltese Falcon as well as the Pilgrim " ", this timepiece is similar to the Raptor and possesses a powerful retrograde system. Nowadays we present the UR-230 Eagle. This new UR-230 comes with a complex half-hunter case (with protective cover) made of quickly layered carbon. The UR-230 is both lightweight along with sturdy, worthy of the title regarding King of the Sky. "
air flow
In addition to the time display, often the UR-230 " Eagle" furthermore showcases new features. URWERK is rolling out a world-first set of dampers designed to protect the new UR-7. 30 movement via the actual turbine. The first set of wind turbines is specifically designed to attenuate the impact of any outside impact, ensuring the watch’s durability. The second group regulates the air flow supplied for the winding system. The strength of this specific " air brake" was created to adjust the winding electric power according to the wearer's activity stage, and is set by a turning knob on the back of this timepiece.
The second swap opposite the first is used to totally disengage the rotor. The particular UR-230 “Eagle” then buttons to manual winding function. The degree of adjustment of these a couple of functions is indicated simply by two symmetrical indicators around the CTP carbon cap from 11 and 1 o'clock.
heart in addition to body
The UR-230 “Eagle” also features the identical housing design as the UR-200 series. Trapezoidal shape, plainly elongated towards 6 o'clock, staggered around the sapphire windows, crown at 12 o'clock, clever management of sharpened and softened angles: the particular UR-230 " Eagle" demonstrates its URWERK nature. It is shell is once again made out of CTP carbon, a substance that offers the best weight/stiffness/graphics outcomes ratio.
Typically the carbon, which is black, light and hard, is made from piled layers and pressed collectively at high temperatures. The resulting mass is then processed into obstructs, following a pattern that exhibits the layers in a typical, controlled geometric pattern. Your back is made of black DLC ti which is grooved and flawlessly compatible with skin. Inside the circumstance, the UR-230 " Eagle" encapsulates its UR-7. one month caliber in a sealed gift basket similar to a safe.
beak and claws
The cover of the UR-230 Eagle can be raised ninety days degrees to expose the entire satellite tv system. The purpose of this handle is to protect the blue crystal. “We created one particular shock protection for the movements and another shock defense for the sapphire crystal, ” explains Felix Baumgartner. " The cover presented several technical difficulties in changing and joining the deal with and housing design. Often the braking system was also analyzed and adjusted until i was completely satisfied. " It is also manufactured from CTP carbon mixed with ti. The beak-shaped edge gives finger grip, allowing it to end up being lifted. When you close that, a detent slows it is stroke so that it rests carefully on the sapphire crystal, and then clicks into place. Such as an eagle catching its food in flight with its talons, is actually quiet and precise.
