Hello amanico. Thanks so much for weighing in. Unfortunately, no. I've copied the description of the 6110 in white gold for you below, but the 6100 UWD was only produced
in yellow (? it doesn't look like rose to me) gold. But the "6200 WG Meisterbund I" is the 6110 in white gold, palladium-alloyed, and currently part of their catalogue. Again, in a limited ed. Always good to hear from you! But surely with your knowledge of watch calibres you may have run onto that UWD-shaped cock (bridge) before?

The UWD project was developed by Marco Lang of Lang and Heyne
It's been used before by a few brands in very limited quantities. The Sinn's version is probably the best for the case and dial, imo. The movement is the same across the different brands as far as I can tell. The movement layout looks a little similar to ...
Thanks so much for contributing! I see the connection, and the page of reference posts of course leads down many other avenues.
To wit… the Frederick III in blue in fabulous looking!!! (And it bears my name.) When I have more than a few moments I will thoroughly digest the discussion/primer on which Lang be"langs" to whom! FH
If you want the UWD movement in another watch, you should look at the independent watchmaker Joshua Shapiro (Los Angeles).
The Infinity watch series uses the UWD caliber and comes with a handmade engine-turned dial which Mr Shapiro makes himself. Truly a magnificent watch front and back!
Thanks much! I was not aware of Mr. Shapiro's work. Very fine, indeed. The "infinity basketweave" is a really classy addition to engine turned dial patterns.
I'm not really a fan of the "California" advertisement on the dial, however. Such fine work, in my opinion, deserves a like degree of subtlety. "Engine turned," as well. But I realize these things are a matter of personal taste. It's still a beautiful tim...
