New Linde Werdelin SpidoLite Titanium Watch: Svend Andersen Finished Movement, Available Skeletonized, With DLC
It is always a pleasure to hear good news from Linde Werdelin. I recently got word of an interesting new release from the Britain based company. Watch companies are usually silent about new products until the official announcement. You talk with them regularly with no word of something new brewing, and then one day you get the news. Once in a while I’d like to see some “leaked” concept art. Well, this is a really cool new watch, which is actually part old watch. Frankly, it takes a bit of involvement in the industry to fully “get” this watch. Maybe you don’t know who Svend Andersen is, or why Linde Werdelin chose to use a 1970s NOS automatic movement for a thoroughly modern timepiece.

Itay Noy Reorder Watch
You don't have to spend megabucks to get into independent watchmaking. Itay Noy is an independent Israeli watchmaker who focuses on creating quirky watches at an accessible price. He is based in the old coastal city of Jaffa, Israel and only makes about 150 pieces a year. Interestingly, most of them have unusual ways of telling time - take a look at the Time Tone watch from 2017. And now, Itay Noy is back again with another peculiar and fun watch. This is the new Itay Noy Reorder watch.The CaseThere are three variants of the Itay Noy Reorder watch. They share the same case but have different dial colors. The case is made out of 316L stainless steel and measures 44mm across. Thanks to the hand-wound movement within, case height is a very manageable 12mm. Interestingly, the crown is positioned at 4 o'clock, something we normally see on Seiko divers. It looks fairly large, which will aid in winding the watch. The crystal is sapphire, and the watch has a see-through sapphire display caseba
