Daniel Johnson — September 25, 2019 — Fashion
Urwerk has created a 'Moon Satellite' watch alongside De Bethune. The watch features a titanium case that has a mirror finish. Both companies have added important aspects to the Moon Satellite watch, De Bethune added the 12 o'clock crown from its DB25 model, and Urwerk added its URDB01 caliber movement system. The collaborative watch was created for the Only Watch 2019 charity, and it will be auctioned off at a price ranging from $120,000-150,000. The proceeds will be used to fight Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
The watch also features the Urwerk satellite time indicator, as well as the Urwerk moon phase display. The watch has been measured at 43mm, and it will have a battery life of 96 hours.
