Crazy $200,000 Urwerk for Just $1,649 

We know you want more watches…. click here: linktr.ee/watchfinder

Gotta say sometimes I miss the old format of the videos with the talking hands. With that format you could see a little bit more the watch and their size with something as a reference.

That’s a very clever way to introduce a watch by first enumerating the types of people for whom the watch isn’t intended. Even if a person hasn’t the slightest inclination for the design, you are drawing them in as you elaborate on its features and functions. Very clever and entertaining indeed! Well done 🥃

XERIC Makes these at this price point to. Little nicer too.

Seeing this last night, you made me spend 1650 just in time for the launch 😂. This is unreal!

All watches are made in Computer controlled machines now. So in a moderate quantity, the price of a watch, even a nice one, can be very reasonable. That is why the Chinese make their watches affordable. However, they are not cheap in quality anymore. While super clone watches are distasteful to many, they really show the obscene profits made by the Swiss. But hey, if you have that much cash to throw around, by all means buy overpriced ( but very beautiful ) watches. I only buy a Swiss watch at a deep discount.

Atowak's offerings so far remind me of the recent development of phones with folding screens: I'm very interested in the design and technology, but will be a lot more tempted to spend that kind of money once they can improve the overall quality.

Great video!

Seeing this video I just had to pick one up!

Most of the cost of a product is not the product itself that the buyer ends up with. Research, marketing, facilities, shareholder compensation, wholesaler and retailer mark-ups... Chinese firms have a few extra benefits like lower rents, wages and compliance costs For many watches the costs of finishing can be the most expensive production cost Then there's the Veblen cost. If Urwerk could sell their watches for, say, $50k they might not find any buyers

I have my eye on an £85 watch where the dial is split into three rotating disks which turn at three different speeds while a stationary pointer shows you where on the face is reading the time. Just nice to have something a bit original rather than expensive

The Phantasos - also a China special - is cheaper, does the same thing, looks better, and comes in more colours. See also the Xeric, though thats also a bit busy too.

Isn’t like buying a watch looking like a submariner, but with an unknown brand ? Up to individual whether you want the generic or the original.

Thats a very cool warch. ❤❤❤❤

As far as ‘Out There’ watches go,I quite like it. I’d like a Pac-a-mac

Absolutely fantastic job atowak, reverse engineering is no easy task and on top of it providing the same concept in much cheaper price range is just like Indian food! Cooking smell while doing a review 😀

I'm inspired by your video... but I might be inspired to buy a Xeric.

In a world where most watches look like a copy of something else these and xeric are doing things a bit different at a cost that a lot of people can afford, I love them and will get one of these or xeric

I do love avant-garde watches...

You think 42mm is a large watch? 😂😂😂

Atowak: "Oh Vacheron, it's time for your hourly stomping" Vacheron Constantin: "Yes dear..."

Olto 8 just launched a wandering hour watch for $370. You certainly don't need to spend $200.000

I don't want an Urwerk. I want to be able to tell the time

Got a phantasos, that was also reviewed here, with the same reference to the uhrwerk. Looks better in terms of quality and much smaller and cheaper too...

Never right your script when you smell Indian food cooking! TRUE that!!

What makes this watch so cheap while the Urwerk is so expensive?

Every watch has an Uhrwerk , it just means clock mechanics..

I like these, but at that price it's still too expensive. When I wanted a wandering hour watch, I bought a Xeric Scrambler. Maybe these will make a good pre-owned buy.

The people saying telling the time is hard obviously don't have a wandering hours watch or can't imagine well enough. Wandering hours are really easy to read -- it's essentially a mechanically powered digital display of the time

It's a witch!

Now If they could shrink the case to something more reasonable.....

That was a shameless, and thinly veiled challenge to the company...you KNOW they are listening 😂

A watch for the person that really likes to work to figure out what time it is.

What do you mean Andrew? It rotates clockwise A.K.A. the correct way 😂 It could be from left to right tho, if the minute track was on top part of the case. I guess the smell of Indian food is distracting you 😂

Just $1,649 for this absolute abomination of a watch? Fair play.

Nice

Well for one, the $200k watch isn't worth $200k in the first place...

Except 3 hand "regular" watches are so boring, if I spend 2k on a watch it needs to be special

I would never buy a copy even though it’s price. If I could I will pay the effort of engineering, not for reverse engineering. And if not, I could always pay pre-owned at a price I could afford. Nevertheless, a good video Andrew.

Cool

I like it coz I like Urwerk but not gonna buy a stolen design

Nice but way to big.

MIYOTA 9039 has accuracy of -10 to +30 seconds a day…

Haha indian food true

Please go back to the old format with talking hands

You guys in the watch world that pretend to be expert: if you talk about perceived quality then please characterise it with facts and data and proofs. Otherwisely said: don't measure if you can not measure.

Urwerk is overpriced in my opinion

If it were 10bucks I would get it and give it to a neighbour dog to chew

that watch is garbage

NOPE! No cheesy low quality Chinese imitation clunker in my collection. Embarrassing looks and expensive too.

Another side gig from the Watchfinder crew. Only the faux British Aristo does more undisclosed paid shilling. OK Ciao!!

$1649 is what the $200k urwerk should be priced. fortunately for urwerk, there are still a lot of suckers around. lmao.

cant help but notice you have lots of similar watches to Urwek than urwek watches 🥲😅
