The UR-150 Scorpion: URWERK's Fearsome Creation
Urwerk unveils the UR-150 Scorpion - what looks to be a groundbreaking watch inspired by the scorpion's swift and lethal sting. Despite its smooth, rounded design, this timepiece houses a powerful retrograde mechanism, capable of delivering an intense, lightning-fast hour transition in just 1/100th of a second.
