New Urwerk wristwatch inspired by NASA space shuttle Enterprise controls

The analog dials and displays used to fly a 40-year-old NASA space shuttle have inspired the look of a new, avant-garde timepiece.

The UR-100V P.02 wristwatch, which was unveiled on Tuesday (July 20), merges luxury Swiss watchmaker Urwerk's unique approach to displaying the time with the flight deck aesthetics of the space shuttle Enterprise. The watch is the result of a partnership between Urwerk and Collective Horology, a Silicon Valley-based watch enthusiast club, together with the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in New York, which displays the retired Enterprise.
