Linde Werdelin - Oktopus Moonlight
This piece is only the third series in Linde Werdelin’s history to use ALW in the entire case since
the original MoonLite was released in 2014. This latest series has a black ceramic bezel.
Linde Werdelin’s in-house moonphase complication is at the heart of the Oktopus MoonLite, a
statement of the brand's adventurous spirit, and directly applicable to diving.
The moonphase
complication enables divers to track the development of the moon phases and the impact on tides and ambient light, to plan the optimal time for night dives. Moon was the first in-house complication designed and developed by Linde Werdelin in 2010.
The current MoonLite has been tested and worn by renowned free diver Jacques de Vos, a
longtime friend of the brand,
"The Oktopus MoonLite functions and feels awesome underwater.
One of the most important traits in a dive watch is its ability to be at home in any surrounding.
The eye-catching details, design and exceptional materials make the MoonLite a timepiece that is difficult to miss, regardless of the environment."
The pursuit of new materials resulted in ALW or Alloy Linde Werdelin – a unique material
created for aerospace and Formula 1 but repurposed by LindeWerdelin for the case of the Oktopus MoonLite.
Linde Werdelin uses colourless ALW that has been subjected to a breakthrough treatment creating a protective layer, making it twice the strength of steel while remaining half the weight of titanium. This allows for durability and strength while not weighing the wrist down, whether underwater or above ground.
