Urwerk's New 'Amadeus': A Unique Pocket Watch That Hatchmarks each Millennium

Standing at the forefront of horological invention, Urwerk propels its legacy further with the unveiling of its latest creation, the UR-1001 ‘Amadeus’. As part of its distinguished ‘Special Projects’ collection, the ‘Amadeus’ is a revamp of its acclaimed UR-1001 Zeit Device of 2011 and wrist-mounted UR-1001 ‘Titan’ of 2015.

The ‘Amadeus’ is not only elegant but is also scientifically complex. It robustly extends Urwerk’s signature satellite display with an annual calendar functionality, whilst systematically tracking everything from fleeting seconds to lasting millennia. This supreme tracking extends its lineage from the original UR-1001. What truly sets the ‘Amadeus’ apart is an external titanium case voluptuously adorned with intricate baroque hand engravings, an embodiment of exquisite craftsmanship and technical prowess.

Its internal components are no less impressive. Concealed within this beacon of finery lies the caliber UR-10.01 movement, Urwerk’s proprietary autowinder operating at 28,800vph, and coming with a vivid 39-hour power reserve. This movement supports a plethora of indicators including an annual calendar, a rotating satellite hours indicator, and retrograde minutes display, to name a few. To merely list the movement’s features does no justice to its prowess. Coupling such intricate mechanical operations with a stunningly engraved exterior, Urwerk unites sartorial finesse and unflinching technical ability in the UR-1001 ‘Amadeus’.
