That is going to change, and the Oktopus Moonphase is one of the first indicators of this. As a collector oriented brand, Linde Werdelin wants to give its clients the most bang for their buck. As such, they are going to start using even higher end, more exclusive movements in their watches. Inside this watch is a modified Frederic Piguet replica Cartier wb509531 watch Calibre 1150 automatic movement. While Frederic Piguet is actually a sister company of ETA, they make movements used in brands such as Blancpain, Breguet, and Ulysse Nardin. Starting to have movements like this in watches of an entirely different species like Linde Werdelin is a big benefit to the brand, and will really attract the eyes of collectors looking for the best, and most interesting watches (love that long sentence).
I am quite happy that Linde Werdelin is going to be moving in this higher status direction.If you want a Linde Werdelin Oktopus Moonphase Audemars Piguet 79349st/oo/1136st/04 you will have to act soon. The timepieces will be available in a limited edition of just 29 pieces and won't start shipping until the Fall. I'll get a hands on look at them though next month a Baselworld 2010. Not sure about the price yet, but it will be above $10,000 for sure. UTS Adventure Power Reserve Watch on eBay666" The watch above is the newer ish UTS Adventure Power Reserve watch. UTS is a hardcore boutique tool watch maker in Germany, with a very dedicated production team and a small volume of watches made each year.
It is rare that they release a totally new product, and for Basel World, that is just what they have done. The Adventure Power Reserve really don't look like anything else in their line up. In my opinion, is strongly similar to the below Audemars Piguet 25987bc.oo.d002cr.02 watch Breguet Moon Phase Power Reserve Ref. 7137BA 11 9V6. Minus the moon phase of course. Is that a striking dial similarity or what?Inside the Adventure Power Reserve is a manually wound Unitas caliber 6497 1 that has been modified with a power reserve indicator. It is a , but hardy movement. I would have liked to see a more complex movement for what this watch will inevitably cost. UTS has always been known for high quality cases, this being among them.
