Linde Werdelin Spidolite: Preliminary Impressions
A long-awaited Linde Werdelin Spidolite arrived yesterday, and I am pleased to share some prelimary observations and photographs. 44 numbered examples of this watch are to be produced. Impression #1: The watch is awesome! Every aspect of the case and buck...
Congrats
Park- Thanks for the great write-up. It is great to see more wrist shots of this watch as the specs on paper make it seem much too large but in person, seems like it wears much smaller. I am waiting for The One, due in January. Enjoy!
OK
DSD, The first wrist shot is mine, 7". For comparison, I remove 3 links from an Offshore. The second wrist shot is that of a friend who removes 2 links from an Offshore. Park
Congrats and thanks for the on wrist review of the LW Spidolite
Hi Park Unfortunately for me now I am going to have to get even more acquainted to the brand. There is nothing like actual testimonials that inspire me to dig in. I have always liked the look but I have yet to handle one in the flesh. I will be sure to do...
Agreed
Really like the aesthetics of this watch. Not a huge fan of the Spidolight but the case design on the One, Three-Timer, etc seems wonderfully done and really appeals to me. Certainly has a Genta-influence but is still unique in and of itself - sort of a c...
Robustness
Bill, I don't think you will be disappointed by it in the metal. Whether the watch is actually "robust" remains to be seen, but it does share a robustness of appearance with the others you mention, and I, too, find this quality attractive. I find it diffi...
re: LW Spidolite....
Happy new Year Park! Thanks for the initial impressions and pics. The lightening cuts to the case and the buckle design are really interesting and look forward in seeing one in person. Looking forward to your long term report. -MW
Lightening cuts
Ming, I'm glad you like it. I think I know why the lightening cuts appeal to both of us. In this instance, I don't think there need be any concern for a loss of structural integrity, but I do worry about that with certain lightened slides and frames in ou...
Awesome Park. Glad you like the SpidoLite!
Thanks for your preliminary impressions. One question, how do you like the rubber strap? Is it too stiff or too flimsy? Cheers, Anthony
Rubber Strap
Anthony, The rubber strap seemed perfect to me. The flexibility seems about the same as that on the Survivor, but the angle of attachment to the case leads me to think it will fit somewhat smaller wrists than a Survivor. There is an interesting design det...
Love it!
What a great looking watch! Congratulations and thanks for sharing your impressions.
i like the skeletonized case/lug
its much more interesting than the offshore survivor and looks very nice on ur wrist, if the case back rotor could get some magic(for example de bethue DB5 like) than it is a very completed piece to MHO Thanks for sharing, Ed~ This message has been edited...
Ed, I wouldn't go that far . . .
I think the Survivor also represents outstanding design! Park...

Congrats, Park!
I have yet to see any Linde Werdelin watches in person, but they do have a very attractive, strong personality in pictures. Yours is quite handsome, and looks good on your wrist. Of the current LW watches I like The One best. I also think the straps are s...
