The Watch
Oktopus Deep Sea has been inspired by the commission Linde Werdelin was asked to do for the Danish Maritime Special Operations Frogman Corp. Made from sandblasted Grade 5 Titanium to prevent unwanted reflections and a matte finished Ceramic bezel. The stripped-back dial has Super LumiNova on the hands, numerals and indices to aid in deep diving. The upper dial uses a laser-cut technique in the form of octopus arms, the Lower dial circular Côtes de Genève creates depth to the dial.
The movement is an LW customised Dubois Dépraz calibre 14580
26 Jewels Automatic beating at 28,800 BPH with 40 hours power reserve.
The 2.5mm Sapphire crystal with AR coating, screw-down case back engraved with an octopus and crown finished with an octopus provides 300m water resistance. A natural rubber strap with signed clasp, the integrated fitting makes it comfortable on the wrist despite its large size. It is also Limited to 88 pieces.
Personal Note
Whilst definitely not my typical style and certainly not my preference for case size, I have found myself wearing this watch and seriously enjoying it! The case size might be large but the design of the case allows it to hug your wrist comfortably, the overall design is awesome too! I love this and now a Linde Werdelin is definitely on my personal must own list!
