On first sight The UR-220 may look deceitfully similar to its predecessor. The watch, no doubt, represents an evolution and not a revolution. The changes and updates are subtle but they do mark some significant firsts for the independent watchmaker.<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Sharing his thoughts about the case material, Martin Frei URWERK\u2019s co-founder and chief designer says, \u201cI wanted to have the finest possible pattern traced along the length of the UR-220\u2019s case. \u00a0We therefore needed a special kind of carbon in layers that are not only parallel but as thin as possible. The concentric pattern you can see on the surface of the UR-220 is the result of this choice. The carbon layers underscore the curves of the sapphire-crystal glass of this watch. In terms of style and technique this UR-220 is just the way I wanted it.\u201d<\/div><\/div><\/div>
