The EMC Time Hunter<\/strong> is a watch in the subversive URWERK<\/strong><\/span> tradition. This unique concept combines a precision mechanical movement with an electronic module that monitors its rate<\/strong>. Simply by pressing a button you discover whether your watch is running fast or slow and the amplitude of its balance. Furthermore, you can adjust it accordingly for optimum timekeeping.<\/p>\n

\"Urwerk-<\/p>\n

The Time Hunter X-Ray comes across as a timepiece that is easy to read<\/strong> with a central dial for black hours and minutes hands coated with white SuperLuminova for enhanced contrast. A rotating disc showing the seconds at 1 o’clock is balanced at 7 o’clock by a power-reserve indicator<\/strong>. The EMC Time Hunter\u2019s performance indicator showing its rate (\u00b1 15 seconds a day) and balance amplitude on demand are at 10 o’clock<\/strong>. On the back of the watch the movement can be seen through the sapphire crystal. Also on the back is the rate-adjustment screw, one of the nerve centres of this watch.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIf it\u2019s not properly adjusted, even the most expensive movement remains a useless mechanism.\u201d This is the premise on which the URWERK team got to work on the EMC Time Hunter.<\/p>\n

According to the temperature and the time spent in every position in space, two identical watches with different owners might show a different weekly gain or loss.<\/p>\n

\"Urwerk-<\/p>\n

Simply by pressing a button the owner of an EMC Time Hunter watch can find out the rate of his watch \u2014 how much it is gaining or losing.<\/strong> He can then adjust it accordingly.<\/strong> This interactive feature enables the owner to adapt his watch to his lifestyle and the changing environment.<\/p>\n

The energy for the electronic rating module is generated by turning a crank. When the button is pressed the hand first points to the rate \u2014 \u00b1 15 seconds a day \u2014 and then, after a short pause, the amplitude of the balance. In addition, a light emitting diode shows green if the watch is performing correctly and red if the rate is outside acceptable tolerances.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Apart from the sophisticated finish of the movement, the key features of the back of the EMC Time Hunter are the adjustment screw and the push-button at the bottom of the dial between the lugs that releases the winding crown.<\/p>\n

For URWERK, the crazy idea of incorporating a workbench instrument within a watch represented the ultimate challenge. The Time Hunter X-Ray confirms the advent of the mechanical watch enhanced by electronic functions that provide a diagnosis of its timekeeping performance. Such a watch gives its owner the active role of getting the best performance from his timepiece.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Time Hunter X-Ray will be produced in a limited edition of 15 pieces.<\/strong><\/p>\n
