Exploding with creativity and bright orange colour. The UR-105 TA Black Orange revisits URWERK's iconic satellite indication, an emblematic and instantly recognizable brand's signature element for 20+ years. Each bearing three-hour numerals, four satellites successively reveal themselves from under a sublime guilloche black cover in PEEK (polyetheretherketone) as they parade past the minute rail to display the time. Everything exudes precision and refinement, from the carrousel chassis to the dial, from the invisible touches to those on full display through the large sapphire crystal. For example, the hidden ARCAP satellite carrousel is treated with ruthenium, and then microbead blasted to a finish meeting the very highest standards of haute Horlogerie.The UR-105 TA also embodies all the years of research invested into URWERK's wandering hour satellites. Here, the ingenuity of this mechanism lies in the invisible carousel responsible for the operation of the satellite hours. The carousel operates precisely, silently, subtly and in harmony with the rest of the timepiece.The "TA" of the UR-105 TA stands for "Turbine Automatic". That is because dual air turbines optimally regulate the movement's automatic winding on full show on the back. These turbines are bead-blasted, satin-finished and treated with black PVD for perfect aesthetics. A small lever selects the winding mode. In the "FULL" position, only the slightest movement winds up the mainspring. "RED." (for "REDUCED") moderates the winding to minimize excessive tension on the mainspring. On "STOP" mode, the winding system is disabled, and the UR-105 TA can then be hand-wound if necessary by the crown.Creators Thoughts:Felix Baumgartner - "With the UR-105 TA, we wanted to get the best of two worlds. We have enjoyed demonstrating the extent of our savoir-faire, from the micron-precision mastery of our CNC machine to the superb hand-finishing carried out in our ateliers. It is a piece that delights the eye. Observed under the loupe, it reveals all the little subtleties that we have incorporated into it,"Martin Frei - "The bezel evokes the breastplate of a knight's armour, protecting the mechanism from the ravages of time. The UR-105 TA is a haute Horlogerie creation, with all high-end codes respected, but its colour really arouses the senses in the Black Orange version."
