Honestly, I'm not much of a fan of sci-fi series and movies, I know all the intricate details of legendary shows and franchises like Star Wars, Star Trek or any other. However, I know that when the phrase "Live Long and Prosper" comes up, it is forever associated with the character of Commander Spock in Star Trek, portrayed by Leonard Nimoy from 1966 to 2013. Seeing that word makes perfect sense with new sci-fi like the Urwerk UR-120 aka Spock, just look at its hour display. So, in order to boldly go where no one has gone before, let's get into some details!

Of course, Trekkies know everything there is to know about the Star Trek series and movies, and everything surrounding Commander Spock. One of the central characters in the series, he's known for his pointy ears, signature Vulcan greeting (hands up, palms out, fingers apart), and a very serious demeanor. But don't think this Urwerk is all about Star Trek or Commander Spock, because it's just a cheeky link, thanks to Martin Frei and Felix Baumgartner and the Urwerk team for their excellent display of the unconventional time display. It takes the codes set by the award-winning UR-110 series and reinterprets them into an alluring new concept.wholesale watches replica

The case of the UR-120 has typical Urwerk charm, and despite its size on paper (47mm x 44mm, 15.8mm high), it fits comfortably on the wrist. This is mainly due to the integrated swivel lugs, which is a rarity on Urwerk. In fact, the new construction of the case and movement means it's noticeably slimmer and sleeker than the aforementioned UR-110.

The sandblasted titanium and steel case looks and feels very good, and the dial is covered with a uniquely shaped curved sapphire crystal. The second sapphire crystal is integrated into the bottom cover, and part of the internal mechanical movement can be seen at a glance. As with other watches from independent watchmakers, the crown is wrapped and sits between the top lugs. This crown is very easy to use! Pull from the bottom, rotate it to set the watch, then push down on the guard to lock it in place.Replica men watches

When it comes to dials, any Urwerk watch is a mesmerizing mechanical marvel, and this one is no exception. The Urwerk UR-120 aka Spock relies on the iconic satellite display, but this time sees the digital hour satellite split halfway through its cycle, changing from one number to another. The three satellites rotate once every three hours, and the cube splits roughly between 6 o'clock and 12 o'clock. Each satellite is equipped with a pointer that runs along the curved minute track on the right side of the dial. The entire satellite module is mounted on a planetary gear system in beryllium copper, gray PVD​coated brass, gold PVD​coated, rhodium plated, ARCAP, anodized aluminum, titanium and LIGA treated nickel parts.high quality replica watches

The entire structure is part of and driven by the Caliber UR-20.01, a new adaptation of the existing modular concept of Urwerk's proprietary movement. It runs at 28,800vph, uses 32 jewels, and offers a 48-hour power reserve. It is wound by a central wound rotor with a branded Windfänger propeller, which regulates the strength of the rotor, sort of like an air brake. While not entirely visible, the finishing of the movement includes circular and straight graining, sandblasted elements, Côtes de Genève and polished screws. For contrast, the Maltese cross and lyre hairsprings are PVD-coated in 24k gold. All in all, it is a very technical amalgamation of traditional and modern watchmaking techniques.buy Replica watches

The Urwerk UR-120 aka Spock launched as a First Edition with a new type of strap, although it might not look like it at first. Unlike the fabric or rubber straps of Urwerk's recent models, this one features a black calfskin strap embossed with a ballistic-like pattern and a titanium pin buckle. But you know you're getting something out of this world from Urwerk, and this one lives up to its promise!
