Urwerk UR-101 Green Mamba: A Black PVD Watch with Emerald Wandering Hours
The Urwerk UR-101 Green Mamba updates the model first introduced in 1997 with a restrained black-and-green design. Its 41mm matte steel case has black PVD coating, an asymmetrical silhouette, a metallised sapphire crystal and 30m water resistance. The wandering-hours display uses two rotating satellites to show the hours as they travel across an emerald-green semicircular minute scale, with Super-LumiNova on the markers. Inside, the automatic UR-1.01V calibre, based on a Vaucher movement, runs at 28,800 vibrations per hour and offers a 48-hour power reserve. The watch comes on a black rubber strap lined with calfskin and is limited to 50 pieces. It is priced at CHF 33,000, excluding taxes.
Buying Time Analysis: The UR-101 Green Mamba is important as a limited 50-piece evolution of Urwerk’s pioneering 1997 wandering-hours watch, pairing its distinctive display with a restrained black-and-emerald design.
