Back from service in Switzerland. Just love this 103 PT. more and more. I remember when I first got it on a summer day and I felt like listening to AC⚡️DC., which I did. This watch is so Rockn’Roll.
Today it’s just a deep affection for this great creation.
Thank you Felix and Martin for risking your life to get this thing on the planet.

I think Urwerk is completely undervalued right now. Nobody does what they do and their pieces are so well made.

I would say they are still undervalued but that’s just me.

And there's no more special time when you and your watch have a reunion after service. Like rock and roll bands, some reunions are truly out of this world! Cheers Peter
