Ancient inspiration, modern interpretation: Urwerk UR-100V Time And Culture II Introduction

Urwerk's UR-100V Time and Culture II features an intricate design that reflects Sumerian astronomical knowledge and is powered by a high-frequency automatic movement housed within a 41mm blued steel case

When Urwerk launches a new edition of the 100V (aptly titled Time and Culture), the watchmakers demonstrate their deep connection to mythology and, more importantly, how we as a species find our place in time and space. While the first iteration was a remarkable representation of the Aztecs and their sunstone patterns, the new UR-100V Time and Culture II explores the richness of Sumerian mythology. Also known as Sumer, the Urwerk UR-100V Time and Culture II's central design depicts Utu, the Sumerian sun god, in his original form and is over 2,000 years old. The latest UR-100V is a meticulous work of craftsmanship with authentic details and subtle laser-engraved fine lines, not to mention the pattern's satin-brushed ridges and micro-sandblasted cutouts. Other gods grace this watch, with Nanna, the Sumerian moon god, located between the lugs. Meanwhile, the blue hue refers to lapis lazuli - a stone closely associated with Inanna, the goddess of love, war and fertility.
