Urwerk's creations are incomparable to anything else out there. The only question is wearability but that's not an issue for 105 which sits very nicely even on smaller wrists.
Some alternatives would be Mb&F hm3 or hm5. Going into a very different direction the creations of Ludovic Ballouard come to mind. It is a personal preference but I would still pick UR 105, the design has a certain coherency to it that's hard to beat, a watch that feels like it came back from the future as opposed to a product of contemporary futuristic design.

Urwerk 105 - Why shouldn't I do it?
By: Jay (Eire) : November 12th, 2017-12:25
So I've been lusting after something unusual to add to my collection for some time. The goal would be to add something which is both modern and displays time in a non traditional manner. To provide some context my collection and tastes are very broad, pre...

Regarding another possibility even if the watch is quite big (45mm), have a look at the MCT sequential. They have an interesting way to display the time for me. Best wishes Alkiro
Umm... De Bethune ? [nt]

VCA midnight poetic wish or planetarium also looks pretty as well...or... Perhaps the boucheron chronograph made by agenhor? Or older opus series (tbh their latest opus is just simply enormous). Cyrus klepcys... Zenith christophe colomb, most of cristophe...
Thanks Jeviar. Some homework for me to do!

I have looked at De Bethune a number times, there are some versions of the 28 which I like and given the floating lugs actually wears well on my smaller wrist. I recently had some time with the 28 Dark Shadows and was at least a little smitten. And I did ...
You can't go wrong with 105 Streamliner

I have tried it for a few days and I'm in love. It wears big but in a vey non obstrusive manner. I usually prefer small watches but I'm ok with URWERK's size as they make sense and are comfortable once you break in the strap. URWERK watch is avant-garde b...
