A Watch For Super Heroes: The Linde Werdelin Two-Timer Biformeter Watch Revew

This is done quite often, and the reason for it is almost epitomized on this watch case. The effect yields an almost 'extra' three dimensional effect *** the su***ce areas stand out more, and giving the case a larger more defined look. That, combined with the hexagonal screws on the case give the look of a space age instrument. 'Luxury utility' is almost a paradox, but is communicated here. This is actually a common concept in the high-end watch world. The idea of perfection through engineering rigor. It is an idea that has been created, and certainly perpetuated by European high-end brands. It is the concept that certain things should be made above any beyond and actual conceivable need, simply for enthusiast appreciation. If you are such an enthusiast, then you'll readily understand and appreciate the design and construction of this, and all Linde Werdelin watches.While a steel bracelet is also available, this model comes on the incredibly durable natural kautschuck super strap. This stuff feels like it could stop a bullet (Yeah...I am not suggesting you try it). The clasp is a fold over locking clasp.One image compares the Two-Timer face in the dark next to a watch with the popular Tritium gas tubes. You can tell that the Two-Timer is actually much brighter. While the glow of Super-LumiNova will fade (as it needs to be charged by the light and begins to dim after a few hours), it remains strong for an impressively long amount of time. I've actually never seen a watch that is as bright in the dark as the Linde Werdelin Biformeter.The dial design is peculiar, but in a good way. It reminds me of many things, but when it comes down to it, the James Bond-esque old world futurism in effect here is appreciated and attractive. It is one of those more subtle yet bold looks that you appreciate more as time goes on. Frankly, that is the case for the watch itself as a whole. It has an enduring sense of image - one that does not communicate fleeting novelty, but rather a unique design that will still be relevant and provocative to look at years from now.This version of the Two-Timer enjoys Linde Werdelin's manicured grade 316L stainless steel case. There are other limited edition models with a DLC coating or in gold, but the steel version should not be overlooked. Other than the precise edges and sculpted looks of the case, there is contrast between polished and brushed su***ces.
