Linde Werdelin Oktopus Double Date 3DTP Owner Review : Unique, conceptual and memorable

My Linde Werdelin Oktopus Carbon Green is simply exceptional! This watch was an instant favorite once on the wrist. I had quite a few reservations when looking at pictures, which flew away as soon as I had the watch in my hands. The watch has a very strong visual identity, but it ultimately remains wise on the wrist with a restricted size lug to lug, and an incredible lightness due to the carbon, ceramic and titanium construction of the case. And this is where we begin to discover the potential of the piece, in the engineering choices that resulted in the final product. The carbon layers that make up the main part of the case remain visible on the edge of the watch, the ceramic bezel protects the dial and the treated titanium screws and case back add a touch of color that contrasts with the sobriety of the black. The dial is not left out. We discover a skeletonized big date complication, on a semi-open dial background with large numbers 3, 6, 9 that are extremely readable. All sprinkled with gray and green luminova, we have a unique and particularly worked piece. On a daily basis, it is a pleasure to wear it on a solid and comfortable rubber, which integrates into the case and fits the shape of the wrist. The strap change system is also very simple. It is objectively an exceptional watch in terms of technical specifications (materials, movement, case). A watchmaking UFO that is for me a must-have in my collection.
