The URWERK UR-200 series is achieving new heights: with double variable geometry turbines, dual shock absorbers and a hybrid turning system, the UR-7. thirty movement spreads the wings of URWERK’s mechanical opportunities.
This UR-230 " Eagle" also obtained physical modifications, including the progress a CTP carbon fiber covering with a removable cover, along with aerodynamic lines, a thinner profile and Raptor-like sizes. The UR-230 " Hawk" is a highly sophisticated and incredibly popular animal.
The 200 Series embraces a new generation: the UR-230. This " Eagle" is actually distinguished by its look, design and mechanics. The most recent member of the URWERK family members is equipped with satellite display, roaming hours and retrograde moments, thanks to engine upgrades as well as high-tech modifications: " 10 years 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 distinctions of URWERK has been additional improved. Today we release a model whose sturdiness is enhanced by technologies. "
The brand new UR-230 " Eagle" keeps the display concept of the actual UR-220. It is a sophisticated edition of URWERK’s signature revolving satellite complication. On the three-arm turntable, each rotating prevent carries the four-hour quantity. They roll along the 120-degree fan, with the current-hour surface pointing toward the particular observer. To display the mins, these display cubes tend to be embedded in aluminum THREE DIMENSIONAL retrograde hands. At the end of typically the 60-minute journey, the skeletonized hand returns to catalog 0, responsible for displaying often the cube for the next hour. Charlie Frei, Art Director and also Co-Founder of URWERK, stated: “We are proud in order to introduce the UR-230, the most recent member of our iconic Collection 200 launched in 2006-2007, alongside the UR-201 ‘Hammerhead’. Since then, our constant quest for innovation has led us to be able to rethink the collection while keeping its dynamism and energy. We developed the concept of Predatory animal Elegance in different contexts. All of us created the Maltese Falcon and also the Pilgrim " ", this timepiece is similar to the Raptor and it has a powerful retrograde system. These days we present the UR-230 Eagle. This new UR-230 includes a complex half-hunter case (with protective cover) made of carefully layered carbon. The UR-230 is both lightweight along with sturdy, worthy of the title associated with King of the Sky. "
air flow
In addition to the time display, the actual UR-230 " Eagle" additionally showcases new features. URWERK has created a world-first set of shocks designed to protect the new UR-7. 30 movement via the particular turbine. The first set of generators is specifically designed to attenuate the impact of any exterior impact, ensuring the watch’s durability. The second group handles the air flow supplied towards the winding system. The strength of this particular " air brake" is made to adjust the winding strength according to the wearer's activity degree, and is set by a spinning knob on the back of this timepiece.
The second change opposite the first is used to completely disengage the rotor. The particular UR-230 “Eagle” then changes to manual winding setting. The degree of adjustment of these 2 functions is indicated through two symmetrical indicators within the CTP carbon cap in 11 and 1 o'clock.
heart in addition to body
The UR-230 “Eagle” also features exactly the same housing design as the UR-200 series. Trapezoidal shape, obviously elongated towards 6 o'clock, staggered around the sapphire windowpane, crown at 12 o'clock, clever management of razor-sharp and softened angles: typically the UR-230 " Eagle" displays its URWERK nature. The shell is once again produced from CTP carbon, a materials that offers the best weight/stiffness/graphics results ratio.
Typically the carbon, which is black, light-weight and hard, is made from piled layers and pressed with each other at high temperatures. The resulting obstruct is then processed into prevents, following a pattern that shows the layers in a normal, controlled geometric pattern. The rear is made of black DLC ti which is grooved and completely compatible with skin. Inside the situation, the UR-230 " Eagle" encapsulates its UR-7. fifty caliber in a sealed textbox similar to a safe.
beak and claws
The cover of the UR-230 Eagle can be raised ninety degrees to expose the entire satellite television system. The purpose of this include is to protect the sky-blue crystal. “We created 1 shock protection for the motion and another shock safety for the sapphire crystal, ” explains Felix Baumgartner. " The cover presented a number of technical difficulties in modifying and joining the protect and housing design. Often the braking system was also examined and adjusted until i was completely satisfied. " It is also created from CTP carbon mixed with ti. The beak-shaped edge offers finger grip, allowing it to become lifted. When you close this, a detent slows the stroke so that it rests softly on the sapphire crystal, after that clicks into place. As an eagle catching its victim in flight with its talons, it can quiet and precise.
