Linde Werdelin Hard Black II showcase

[Iceheller]

LW make nice watch but seem to only feature the Spider watch with different material like hublot BB and AP ROO. Use mostly ETA engine with nice deco. But not sure if they can capture the mass or the luxury market. Seem limited production, maybe due to the fact that it is run by husband and wife pair. I seem them more Alain silbestein. make great watch but limited no. Maybe due to limitation of funds. who knows some watch group might decided to net then like LVMH with hublot. Just my $2. By the way, they distributed by Sincere and THG I assume.

Interesting to know where you found that Linde Werdelin is run by a husband and wife pair? States differently on their website and from all the various articles I've read online (link / link). Also the fact that they work closely on a number of pieces in their collection with Svend Anderson says they arn't exactly small players

Also, not sure what you're trying to convey in the first sentence. Hublots BBs first range were very much steel affairs with the ceramic bezel. Even the current range feature all steel affairs in 2010. Not to mention they are ETA7750s (not even 7753s) in them. APs until recently were not even using an integrated inhouse chrono movement. And its only in the very high end LEs or the new 2011 versions whereby more material's will be utilised, i.e. ceramic, forged carbon etc. Not really defending LW, but trying to understand where you are coming from and what you're trying to state as it's not exaclty conclusive. Neither of those brands have a hardened steel DLCed piece to my knowledge either.

Also, its not distributed by THG/Sincere but by E'Collezion

Anyhow, seperately, was messing around with the collection this morning and took some shots of my whole collection, but this one stood out

Nice meeting you mate.

wow...so fast ar...like dat me have to forgo too....argh...i think our wrist size very similar...

Pity. The main issue is not so much the watch head but the strap and how it curves outwards in a cylindrical fashion.

6.5" is the smallest it can potentially handle.

[feilong108]

mine wrist is about 6" or 5.9".....such a nice watch..what a pity...thought if Bro Exxondus buy then can ask him treat me kopi and see the nice piece!!!

ya u are right. If the strap does not curve outwards, i would be able to wear it. was pretty sad really when I notice that it doesnt fit haiz....

but on a side note, if it did not curve outwards, it would not look as nice actually. straight downwards wouldnt really suit this kinda big watches

[feilong108]

heehehe..good mah...i think when u get ur next watch we can meet up liao..lol...to scam kopi from you and molest ur newest 'lover'!

[kqxrlovesSpeedmasters]

Wah where both of you work can meet up so easily? I'm near both Orchard and Great World City, if one day free to meet for lunch let me know

haha no angry lah.
