URWERK presents its iconic 103 with a steel case. But not just any steel case, the 103.08 is the world's first wristwatch treated with TiAlN - Titanium Aluminum Nitride. The coating on the steel 103.08 is the hardest yet known in the world of haute horlogerie. A TiAlN coating less than 4 microns thick has the effect of multiplying the resistance of the underlying metal to scratches, shocks, oxidation and even acids. The 103.08 is lighter than its gold and platinum stable mates, yet much, much harder.
