LINDE WERDELIN Oktopus II



By TLex Morten Linde & Jorn Werdelin introduce the new LINDE WERDELIN Oktopus II - their interpretation of the ideal dive watch: unique in the fact that it has been designed with LW's own Dive Instrument in mind, the Reef. Together the Oktopus II and the Reef are among the two most sophisticated dive tools available to divers today! Linde Werdelin were able to draw upon their extensive experience and know-how with diving instruments to create the Oktopus II.

The Oktopus II measures 46mm x 15.25mm. It boasts a 5-part case construction, which blends a combination of Titanium, gold and ceramic to allow for a high level of corrosion resistance. This 5-part case construction protects the inner-workings of the watch in much the same way as a diving bell protects the diver. In fact the watch's movement is housed in a specialized inner cylinder, which is completely sealed to guarantee absolute water-resistance to 300meters.

Further features include a dual level dial: upper - with octopus icon, lower - with water-ripple effect. In reference to the first Oktopus model the caseback has been engraved with an Octopus. This an incredible new watch that not only illustrates the evolution of the LW's Oktopus, but perhaps the evolution of the dive watch itself - a watch that LW say has been made with such precision that it would not have been possible to make 10 years ago!
