The already distinctive Urwerk watches take on a new character with the UR-210 model, which in turn stands out from previous models. With the profile of a Maltese falcon, the pointer sweeping the arc of minutes proclaims an innovative function with its purpose-built architecture. Its mission is to capture and frame the hours satellite, carrying it smoothly across a 120° arc from 0 to 60 minutes. The real action is triggered at the 59
th minute. With a sharp click, the pointer flies back to the start of the scale in less than a tenth of a second to take control of the next hour. You can gauge your energy output over the past two hours by the pointer at 11 o’clock : in the green zone, ample energy is being generated to wind the movement ; in the red, the pointer indicates immobility. Depending on how active you are, you can adjust the winding rate at the back of the watch. Turning the wheel to FULL converts your slightest movement into winding power when you are less energetic. If you become more active, turn the wheel to REDUCED. The winding rotor then engages an air turbine that dampens the movement of the rotor as it spins. In the STOP position, the self-winding system is blocked and the watch can be wound by hand.
