Incoming Urban Jürgensen BIG8

Today for the first time seated on my wrist is the wonderful Urban Jürgensen BIG8 in stainless steel. I'm a happy man right now.

Congrats, would love to know exactly what Voutilainen does in those watches, the hands, lugs and a few other things are clearly like his watches, looks very nice in any case

It's actually the other way around. Voutilainen's watches are clearly like Urban Jürgensen's.

Voutilainen worked in Urban many years back and took many of the designs such as the teardrop lugs, the hands, etc. and used them in his independent work.

Cool watch. I’ve been eyeing these from afar.
