Hello everyone, I hope you are all preparing for a wonderful New Year!🥳 I find myself in a tricky situation and would appreciate your advice on a difficult decision: choosing between the UR-100V LightSpeed and the UR-100V UltraViolet. In the photos, you w...  

I tried that one on a few months ago and was super impressed. The purple and white look great, a unique but still wearable combo. And it’s super comfortable. I guess the Lightspeed shows you literal light speeds, but I feel like that’s about as useful as ... 

I think that both would look less bold with different straps, though we all know that these watches are just toys the the masses 😎 (which is a plus nowadays). I didn't try these ones at the last Milano watch week but I'd be curious to look at the violet w... 

Urwerk is more avant garde and different somehow !

Pure emotional "decision". I saw the pictures and my reactions were "intriguing" in one case and "WOW!!" in the other. I'll let you guess which is one and which is the other.

Would go with the Ultraviolet, likely with a different strap.

another interesting point is that, on the lightspeed, the other hours wheels are hidden may be making it more "readable" ?

To change, then a watch body.

but the practicality of the lightspeed more.... If that makes any sense to you!....

super cool "complications" but also think is more versatile/special. I also like the fact that not all wheels are visible at the same time!

Not an easy choice. I would try to decide based on how you will wear it. If you look for an all-out in-your-face standout piece, go ultraviolet. If you’re more into wearing a cool and unique watch in a variety of settings, go Lightspeed. To put it in a di... 

I don't mind screeming party pieces BUT I like the fact that the lightspeed is more unique + 50 Mt water resistance/screw down crown makes it really more versatile for me (yes I would use it in water, why not !) I will try them in a few days and make the ... 

The only answer is Lightspeed. It looks cooler like Darth Vader's helmet

I’m drawn to the purple as it’s a bit outrageous and makes a statement, perhaps worn for special occasions. The black is super cool and works with many straps and more situations. Good Luck!

Personally it would also be my choice, as I don’t like that the satellites are covered on the other reference. I do think, with a different strap (darker) the UV will be more versatile. I would add one last comment on something you didn’t ask about; the 1... 

and this is an excellent point! I also like the white strap of the UV to be honest. I don't mind different designs! Now you make a good point about the 100 series BUT in terms of wearability (I do have a fairly small but ambutious wrist) it is a great lin...
