Watchmaker Urwerk recently unveiled their newest wristwatch, the UR-CC1 linear watch, is the first time gauging device with linear indications. Most people are used to reading their time in a three hundred sixty degree circle, Urwerk created an alternative by communicating the time in a linear fashion. “Linear time is displayed by two large cylinders: one for the jumping hours, the other, a retrograde cylinder for the minutes.” This watch is extremely limited with only 25 produced!
