The UR-1001 launches on Wednesday the 24th of August (corrected). Until then I'll post a photo or two each day to give you a feel for what's in store.

Remember, this is URWERK so expect the unexpected! eye popping smiley

When it comes to a new Urwerk model I can't wait.
Everytime the brand amazes me again and I really wonder what kind of watch
this new UR-1001 will be.

Thanks, ian.
it must be quite a challenge to present close ups without giving away too much.

14th Sep for the launch. It will feel like waiting for Xmas.

It's not a chronograph

Sorry, it's not a chronograph. But I can't tell you what it is because if I do so, Ian will come and beat me. A lot, I suppose.

Not odometer
August 23, 2011 08:49PM
It's the Power Reserve. That's why they called it Zeit Machine - Time Machine. But there is one more feuture there to be revealed... Actually two features including the 150 years counter, but that's not such a novelty for Urwerk smiling smiley
Pocket/Desk Watch
August 23, 2011 09:02PM
When first Ian said this summer Urwer will release new watch, he said it will be pocket watch. Well, it is. But there are two nothes on the sides which suggests it might be also a dockable desk watch too. Hmmm...
avatar There is no 150 years counter . . .
August 23, 2011 11:17PM
Close, but not 150 years.

More that 150 years - I knew it!
August 24, 2011 01:02AM
Holy Shi...va!

That's a calendar! It has a second carosel with the 12 months (yes, the months are also 12 just like the hours) and a second "banana" with 31 devisions for the days. Wow!! Great work Urwerk! You are geniuses!

And Ian, I know you wont wish to believe me, but I've thought that the years counter most probably is expanded further then the 150 years, just I had no evidences.

Wow, guys, it's so excited that new horological beast! Urwerk 1001 The Beast Machine!
avatar Where's the Fireworks Ian ?
August 24, 2011 01:40AM
It is Wednesday 24th since a few hours now.

I enjoyed your teasers a lot.

Here is my guess for the UR-1001 Zeit Device :

- a multifunction watch usable in the pocket at the end of a chain as on a wrist framed inside a strap

- the crown is secured in similar manner to the more familiar Panerai's and makes the watch waterproof to vertiginous depth

- the in house Arcap spring you showed first is essential in the Flyback mechanism and I suspect the central domino arm to turn anti-clockwise

- I do not know yet what do do with the 1 to 1000 scale but would love this to be a depth-meter

Load your canon Ian and shoot !

MarkS
avatar here's my take on it...
August 24, 2011 03:30AM
I guess we're thinking more or less the same, Mark...
An UR-200 model as pocket watch (with chain?), crown at the "usual" 12 o'clock position. I think the 1000 scale indicates the hours of power reserve.
So now it's waiting for the final pictures... and unfortunately we have to wait another 3 weeks...

Cheers,
Frank

But that´s only me...in a few hours we´ll know it!

a 1000 days countdown indicator for when the watch needs service?
