Thank you for the video, another one in my bookmarked pages smiling smiley

I learned that the watch is powered by a GP 3100 caliber, do you know if Urwerk had to deeply modify this caliber to fit the UR110 mecanism ? Is the conception work of the watch only concerns the "satelites" system ?

I wonder if Urwerk considers the opportunity one day to integrate an in-house caliber ? smiling bouncing smiley

the 103's also relied on a out-of-house movement, but due to the weight of the satellite system, the movement was relatively unrecognizable from so many modifications. It takes a hell of a lot of torque to get those things to move compared to two or three small, practically weightless hands.

This watch is stunning! I really like the new complication and really like that they're using Ti now too. Offer me a 103 (my top-of-the-list at the moment) and one of these and it'd be one TOUGH decision.
