Inspired by the swift and deadly strikeofa scorpion, this watch features a lightning-fast transition between hours, completing theleap in just 1/100th of a second. The large, open-worked hour hand arcs over the minutetrack, and at the end of each hour, the retrograde hand snaps back to zero while thesatellite hours rotate on their axes, setting up the next cycle. It's an extraordinary feat of engineering, executed with precision and speed. The trajectory of the 240-degree minute sector is reminiscent of a scorpion’s tail poised to attack, and the retrograde minutes hand reinforces this aggressive symbolism as it snaps back at the top of every hour. URWERK’s Creative Director and Co-Founder, Martin Frei, describes the watch’s design as an “evolutionary process”, blending gentle curves with sharp angles to create a unique aesthetic. The profile of the case and sapphire crystal forms a perfect sphere, while the minutes hand shares the same curvature, adding to the visual harmony.
