Unveiling the new UR-230 “Polaris”: Urwerk’s first ceramic see
In normal Urwerk fashion, this new generation doesn’t use ordinary ceramic, but a unique composite materials specially designed for the brand.
In 2023, Urwerk unveiled the UR-230 “Eagle” as the first member of their 230 series, replacing typically the UR-220.
The actual model features the brand’s signature satellite hour exhibit and is powered by a brand new movement: the UR-7. 30th calibre. The black layout features a DLC-treated titanium as well as CTP (Carbon Thin Layer) carbon case and is limited by 35 pieces.
Now, Urwerk replica watches for sale is back with the subsequent generation of the 230 line, but the new UR-230 “Polaris” marks the first use of the ceramic case in its selection.
However , it is no ordinary ceramic , it’s a special composite substance specially developed by Urwerk throughout collaboration with Jura-based Dschungel Composites.
Quick introduction to ceramics in the making of watch Over the years, ceramic has grown to be an increasingly popular material in horological industry for its strength and damage resistance, and Rado ended up being one of the first brands to use the information back in the 1960s.
In recent decades, countless various other watch brands, from Chanel to Audemars Piguet for you to IWC, have begun to make watches with ceramic.
The downside of this stuff is its inherent brittleness, which makes it prone to cracks and also breakage. Additionally , the material's rigidity makes it more suitable intended for angular designs rather than circular ones, partly because the technique of manufacturing ceramic watch circumstances requires the use of molds. replica Richard Mille McLaren
Featuring its edgy and highly aerophysical case shapes, Urwerk recognized it would require a slightly different technique than typical ceramic. And so Urwerk enlisted some gurus in the field to develop an exceptional ceramic composite material tailored for the brand.
This kind of exciting new material usually takes center stage in the UR-230 " Polaris. " Let's look!
The New UR-230 “Polaris”
I just conducted an exclusive interview using master watchmaker and Urwerk co-founder Felix Baumgartner, who have explained: “Busch Composites is usually primarily involved in the space along with aviation industries. However , will not have the involved in the pharmaceutical and watch market sectors. ”
“They made a special ceramic in addition to quartz fiber blend usually, pressed it together as well as treated it with epoxy, which gives the material a clean white color. ”
While the new content is the biggest difference amongst the “Polaris” and the original “Eagle, ” there are other changes worthy of noting. “The addition associated with quartz to ceramic reduces several issues with traditional porcelain: color restrictions, breakage, plus the use of molds, ” Baumgartner continued. luxury replica watches
“With molds, you are limited within the design of the case itself and also lose about 2% of the watch case material, which reduces often the accuracy of the case. In contrast, on this composite material, we were capable to machine the case to maintain the actual curved proportions we wished. ”
Likewise, in terms of case design, the particular “Eagle” uses a hunter-style caseback that acts as a protective covering for the sapphire crystal. The particular Polaris features a more traditional event construction, a sleeker, more compact design, and is 1 . 5mm thinner than the original Novelty helmet.
Choose the UR-7. 30 movement and start your adventure Urwerk’s models can be a little intimidating, as they appearance nothing like your average wristwatch. However , at their central, they are designed to be remarkably intuitive and user-friendly. replica Ulysse Nardin Marine watches
“With the 200 Series, each of our goal is to put the end user in the driver’s seat on the watch, ” Baumgartner talks about. “Just like a car could switch between manual along with automatic transmission, these designer watches can switch between guide and automatic winding methods. ”
“When you’re relaxed and stationery, you don’t need to secure the movement from unpleasant knocks-you can keep the watch inside the automatic position, ” they clarifies. “But if you’re planning to play a round regarding golf, you’ll need to that winding system in the handbook position to fully protect the idea. ”
Throughout either position, you can use typically the brand’s signature satellite hr system, which consists of a few satellites for the hours in addition to retrograde minutes. This ideal mix results in a pleasant " click" sound from the minute side when the hour changes, softly alerting the wearer to the fresh hour through both properly feel on the wrist.
