The Urwerk UR-100V LightSpeed is the latest addition to the UR-100V collection. It features a rather unusual 3D planetarium
A planetarium is described as a theater built for presenting astronomy and the night sky. A planetarium in or on a watch is also called orrery and often a mechanical model of the solar system showing the relative positions and motions of the planets and moons.
.
The first orrery was invented around 1704 by George Graham, who also founded the watch brand Graham, and Thomas Tompion. George Graham (7 July 1673 – 20 November 1751) was an English clockmaker, inventor, and geophysicist. Thomas Tompion (1639–1713) was an English clockmaker, watchmaker and mechanician who is regarded as the Father of English Clockmaking.
