Something Different - Urwerk
Been chasing the right “something different” for a long long time.
In the early days Richard Mille was on the radar but I hesitated too long and we ran into this crazy bubble and sky high retail prices that we have today. Ah well. But then there was Urwerk. Young company, independent and doing something a little different. The first time I had one on the wrist was 5 or 6 years ago on one of many trips to what I refer to as “the land of the independents” (Singapore). I wasn’t convinced by the watch or the price tag at the time. Fast forward a few years and I continued to keep an eye on what was happening both new and used. Always checking the auctions . Still nothing to tickle my fancy. Not even the Only Watch (although as a collab it wasn’t pure Urwerk anyway). Not to mention it was an absolute monster on the wrist (even allowing for the bad camera angle on this photo). Then, last year I saw the 105 CT. After many trips to various ADs in Singapore, Hong Kong and in the US and having tried both variations on again and again I figured this was the one. It’s been on the wrist for three or four months at this point and I’m happy with the decision to take the PVD version. It’s both super light and comfortable due to the lack of lugs. Most of the pictures make it look large but honestly that’s just the angle of the photo, the watch actually wears reasonably small in my opinion. Enough talk, here’s the 105 CT.
