Urwerk refines its entry-level offering with the UR-100V Magic T Hunter Green that showcases a metallic ash green dial matched with a sandblasted case and bracelet. Entirely in titanium, the new UR-100V is sleek, matte, and lightweight. The new model remains mechanically identical to the standard UR-100V, and retains the distinctive satellite disc hour display, where the hour indicator advances along a curved 120-degree track graduated for 60 minutes.

Initial thoughts

Building on the ongoing expansion of the UR-100V series, the Magic T “Hunter Green” adopts the same sanded, shot-blasted titanium case as the original Magic T — but now rendered in metallic ash green. Though the new model has more contrast, it still retains the muted, low-key aesthetic found on the all-grey original.

While the model itself has appeal, Urwerk has arguably introduced too many iterations of the UR-100, each distinguished by only subtle variations, since the model’s debut in 2019. This has made the model line confusing, and leaving each individual edition less distinctive.

As with other UR-100 models, the “Hunter Green” is an entry-level model in the Urwerk catalogue and priced CHF58,000, or a third of the recent flagship UR-230 Polaris. This and other UR-100 models provide enthusiasts with the chance to experience Urwerk’s signature complication and advanced case making at a relatively accessible price.

Restrained green

Apart from the green finish, the “Hunter Green” remains identical to the original Magic T in dimensions, thickness, and movement. Measuring 41 mm in diameter and not too long, the UR-100V is compact and one of the most wearable Urwerk models, even on a bracelet. Though the bracelet adds to the overall mass, it remains lightweight as the bracelet is titanium and made up of fairly slim links.

The principal complication is Urwerk’s signature satellite-disc hours that’s a modern take on the historical wandering hours complication. This is driven by Urwerk’s proprietary display module that is mounted on a Vaucher automatic calibre as the base movement. Like the other variants of the UR-100, the base movement is also upgraded with a “turbine” winding mechanism to regulate the pace of automatic winding.
