I think this watch is really cool!!! Sure to be a conversation piece!!
It is interesting to know that this is actually a mechanical watch. I wonder how much does it cost to service this thing as we need to do that every 3 years!

The hour cubes remind me a lot of the Harry Winston Opus 5:

Harry Winston makes some amazing watches. What does the Opus V sell for? About $750,000US?

Was that a Urwerk or train wreck, I bet it's mighty expensive, but even if I could afford it I wouldn't want it's particular design.
Mechanical ingenuity though.

I prefer the HW to the U, as well...though I don't really care for either. :bye: No friggin clue how to read the time on either. :thinking: Plus I don't think I'm that cool. :chuckle:

About 25,000 quid for the Urwerk 201 thats say US$50k.
Think I'll keep lusting for the new GMT for now.

Just saw in the Spanish edition of Stuff Magazine that this watch is going for 56,000 Euros, about $76,300 USD> Freaky, but interesting nonetheless because the movement is sure to be complex and fascinating.

During my last visit to Las Vegas in November 2006, I had my first personal encounter with the 103 Collection.
The 103 is a beautiful conversation piece. The illumination is absolutely unbelievable, very vibrant and long lasting. I can't remember if the price was $35K or $50K USD.
My memory is offset because of this completely diamond crusted Brietling that I had tried on, which was priced at $175,000.00 USD.... Ahhhhh.....
