Urwerk is an independent Swiss watch brand founded in 1997 by watchmaker Felix Baumgartner and artist Martin Frei. Based in Geneva, the brand is known for replacing conventional hands with highly original satellite displays and for treating the watch as a complete mechanical and sculptural object. Felix Baumgartner brings a deep knowledge of traditional complications and restoration, while Martin Frei contributes an artistic vision shaped by design, space and astronomy. Together, they have developed a distinctive language that combines advanced mechanics, unconventional case architecture and futuristic aesthetics. Urwerk has become one of the defining names in contemporary independent watchmaking by constantly questioning how time can be displayed, experienced and interpreted.
