Urwerk 201


Timepieces are supposed to be easy to read so when you come across a watch with an incredibly complex mechanism for telling time, it had better be a looker. Fortunately, the Urwerk 201 fills that role nicely. Set on an odometer style face, a rotating dial with telescoping minute and hour hands tell time. Turn it over and discover a cool feature that reminds you when to get your oil changed and a record of time from the past 100 years. Don't ask me why any person would need to know that - unless you're the time traveler Cable from X-Men. Of course innovation and luxury come at a price and we know it's expensive if the price needs to be called in.
