Urwerk UR-105 TA 'Turbine Automatic' Watches In Fancy Colors
With the new-for-2015 Urwerk UR-105 TA collection, the Swiss brand is making one of their most appealing timepiece collections even better.

The next model in the family is the Urwerk UR-105 TA "Turbine Automatic Knight Watches," which extends the range with not only new visual styles, but a totally different movement.

Loud Movement
I had a 16013 that I had to sell to fund my BLNR and I really miss being able to hear the movement without putting the watch to my ear. I stopped into the AD to see if the Datejust 41 had a loud movement, but it was also very quiet.What new models would have loud movements?Or how old of a model would I have to get?I'm trying to avoid the 36mm models.Thanks TRF, really enjoy how helpful you all are
