Linde Werdelin 3-Timer Racing Series for Singapore
Linde Werdelin, together with partner E'collezione in Singapore will offer a special edition 3-Timer. Based on the Linde Werdelin 3-Timer GMT timepiece, the new 3-Timers were created to coincide with the Grand Prix in Signapore. Two variations are available, yellow or red, with 9 pieces available in each color. Like previous 3-Timers, this cersion features an intricate galvanic satinised dial with a great looking pattern. But what really sets it apart from other models, is the cool red or yellow accents on the bezel, case and strap.
The Linde Werdelin 3-Timer GMT has two hour hands and a 24-hour bezel, all of which can display a timezone, for a total of three time zones. There is also a date function at 4 o'clock.
The stainless steel case is 46 mm x 49 mm. Inside is an ETA 2893 A2 mechanical automatic movement with a 42 hour power reserve. The caseback is solid steel, with the word "Racing" engraved. The crystal is 2.2mm thick and features anti-reflective treatment. The hands and markers feature Superluminova for nighttime viewing. The strap is black perforated calfskin with red or yellow details & stitching and a steel ardillon buckle.
Like all Linde Werdelin watches, the 3-Timer Racing can carry both The Rock - extreme ski instrument - and The Reef - dive instrument - maximizing the user's sporting moments.
When I saw the original 3-Timer, I really liked the pattern on the dial, and the overall style of the watch. For this model, though, they have taken the good elements of 3-Timer and given it a totally new look. It is definitely more bold, but without being overly flashy. The stainless steel case looks great with the (black and bright yellow) or (black and bright red) contrasting color schemes.
