Crazy and fun sits well in the collection..
Perhaps I haven’t gone the deeper end yet - so this timepiece likely initiates a journey which will make an even bigger dent in the wallet. I think other members are right - there is only so much patience and continuous purchasing one needs to keep up with the big three (Patek, AP, Rolex). Independents are a little more attainable but given what we have seen lately with a few brands who knows if this is also sustainable in the long term.
Anyway, enough postulating - more enjoying!
Cheers

Below is one of my favorite angles of the Urwerk models…the oversized crown smack in the middle…

The Urwerk has landed!!!
Hi all Incredible day yesterday finally putting the Urwerk 203 on my wrist. First job was definitely to change the strap that was on the watch, and thanks to the wonderful support from Urwerk Geneva I was able to obtain one of the new straps used for seve...
Nice!
Peter.. do they come with other colour such as yellow/green? I saw black with the Velcro but I prefer with tang buckle. Love the “step” details. Thank you for sharing especially on how to DIY on the strap change .. currently I always bring it back to the ...
Nice photo and style…
Thanks for the feedback. I’ve attached below some alternative straps for the tang - and I think they match the colors you are asking about! Outside of a steady hand and some elbow grease, I think the strap changing is super easy - literally just screws in...
Urwerk is my favorite indie…
Amazing… Just curious what your thoughts were if they had made it out of ceramic instead of PVD?
I totally wish!!
I am a super fan of ceramic because of its lightness and scratch resistance. I think the hardest wearing material used today by them must be the AlTiN models. I can imagine it’s not easy at all to machine ceramic with so many crazy angles and surfaces. Ma...
Huge Congrats . Such a amazing and uber cool UR
Please show us some strap changes when possible. This watch can handle a lot of color combos. Welcome to the Urwerk family.
Agreed…
The strap makes a big difference in extending the design aesthetic beyond the case… Cheers, Peter

Great stuff Peter, congrats on finally getting it on the wrist.
I do like that strap and I had thought it would be a good pair for my 105, then I got some sticker shock !
Ahh yes…probably the most I’ve ever paid for a strap…
But as you recall from Panerai days, not so far from pre-V straps. And - not necessarily a full justification, but the particular strap is inclusive of a buckle - so that perhaps offsets the cost a little bit? Cheers, Peter
Good point, to be fair I did not factor in that I wouldn’t also need a buckle.
Although I’m frugal enough that buying extra buckles (at least OEM ones) is no something I’d do.
