This is the just announced T-Rex iteration of the UR 101, definitely something I would buy/wear. (I won’t be actually buying one; over committed currently). For those of you that follow Urwerk you will recognize the T-Rex, this is not the first time we ha...  

For me, definitely not too much. And I think this is because of the bronze colouring, which does not oxidize. I do understand it to be engraved; Urwerk refer to it as guilloche.

Perhaps with the round case I'd choose the classic one

I’ve had some time with a T-Rex 105 over the years and I think that iteration feels less rough/tough. I wonder if the engraving is deeper in this 101? Also, the case shape (101 and 105 being very different) may impact perception.

You're one of the few great Urwerk collectors that can speak with the daily wrist experience

But I can however appreciate the vision and creativity in producing something like this for those that will and do like it. The only other thing I did notice on the spec's release is that they have two headings labelled case the second of which is actuall... 

I checked the French and Chinese and those are correct, the mistake seems to be on the English version. There are 8 languages for all these press packets, but still I agree it should have been caught. Regarding the watch; yes, this is not for everyone and... 

Maybe needs a different strap or something.

I think even more so than it did for other models. The “base” 101 is such a clean rounded design that this just looks so so different. You could put this on a matching brown/bronze colour strap, or something with more contrast (khaki green even) and it wo... 

Would love to have one of these on my short T-Rex arms! I also really like your black Urwerk model - that one is my favorite!

That said. I don’t know how I “value” the 101 overall. Is it too simple and less interesting overall? And does the retail price reflect that? (The first 101 were priced closer to $30k I recall, so the question here is whether the premium for the different... 

Got to wonder about how easy it is to get replacement /custom straps for these pieces.

Jean Rousseau have made countless straps for Urwerk. I don’t know the dimensions of this one but to me it looks like the be the same at the 105 series and so lots of interchangeable options.

Despite this iteration not being what I prefer, it still looks very impressive, and I'm confident even better in person than in images. Thanks for the update, cheers, Filip

The first series was a bit to plain for my taste. I think a UR needs to be a bit bold and outstanding. This one is exactly that

Of Urwerk but this one seems to be not for me.
