Quite a presence! I assume it's a 'moon-phase diver' which is quite an unusual config. - what's the depth rating? Enjoy, btw!

@Vincent65: Thank you. It's indeed a moonphase diving watch. This is the Linde Werdelin Oktopus Moonphase. It's a limited edition of 29 pieces. Bezel is 18k rose gold and the case is grade 5 titanium with a very fine bead blasting. It's water resistance to 888m. The regular Oktopus is water resistant to 1111m due to the closed caseback of that model. The Moonphase has an open caseback showing the frédéric piguet movement.

My goodness, that is one nice watch! As Vincent said, the mix of a diving watch with the moonphase complication is quite unusual but the result is outstanding, congratulations.

Thanks guys! And yes, the lume on the moonphase disc is just amazing. They also nailed it by combining a microbillé titanium case with the rose gold bezel. Great match imo.
I've put it on a black gator now which makes it dressier, during summertime I prefer the rubber strap for the sporty look. |

This watch has amazing wrist presence. Not just due to it's size but the shape and overall design. I must checked out LW watches one of these days but it isn't easy to find one over here. Congrats!

Great design. I just never liked how the CGs get in the way of using the crown.
