Linde Werdelin has collaborated with London tailor Labassa Woolfe on three new limited edition series of 3 Timer watches. The three series explores the undeniable link between watches and tailoring within a man’s lifestyle and how each resonates and compliments one another.

“This collection is our collaborative answer to the question: Should you match your watch to your suit or match your suit to your watch?” Jorn Werdelin.

The three series are inspired by the iconic Labassa Woolfe brand hues: ‘Basalt’, ‘Midnight Claret’ and ‘All Black’. Midnight Claret is a signature colour of Labassa Woolfe tailoring with the dial’s deep tones enhanced by accents of solid rose gold on the crown, hands and indexes.

Introducing the LW x LW collaboration

Originally launched in 2009, the Linde Werdelin 3 Timer was an evolution of our first ever watch, the Biformeter 2 Timer. While retaining the Biformeter’s sporty attitude, every single detail of the 3 Timer was redesigned in a more refined and subdued fashion: from the shape of the hands and LumiNova indexes to the new dial with a textured pattern emulating the lines of longitude and latitude circling our globe.

With a GMT function combined with a 24 hour turning bezel it made the 3 Timer our ultimate traveller’s sports watch. The 3 Timer is a GMT able to track three time zones and is the perfect sports watch for the modern and adventurous man, signalling functionality, great design and elegance. Available to order in a Limited Edition of 33 pieces (about 4 weeks delivery leadtime).

The new 3 Timer with the earthy brown dial has as a twist with an accented tip for the GMT in red. The watch is mounted on a dark green textured calfskin strap that again reinforces the earthiness of the brown dial, giving this limited edition a new point of view.

BOVET – OttantaSei Flying Tourbillon – Pininfarina Platinum Edition

BOVET – Pininfarina OttantaSei Flying Tourbillon Platinum 44mm Limited Edition

BOVET BY Pininfarina

OttantaSei

The Ottantasei tourbillon—the latest creation born of the passionate partnership between BOVET and Pininfarina—attests to the two Maisons’ shared alchemy, which enables them to achieve the accuracy that characterizes this exceptional timepiece. To satisfy its collectors, the Maison is offering an exceptional edition of the Ottantasei in platinum, limited to just 10 of the 86 movements manufactured.

The story first began in 2008, when Pascal Raffy, owner of BOVET, met with Paolo Pininfarina. Drawing on their common values and shared taste for excellence, together they imagined a timepiece to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the famous Turin-based design agency— giving rise to the Ottanta tourbillon in 2010. Such was the mutual understanding between the Italian designers and Swiss watchmakers that the two men decided to continue along this path, which soon resulted in a collection.

Pascal Raffy’s instructions during the development of the Ottantasei invited his teams to showcase its essential mechanics. To this he emphasized the word “light” in two senses referencing both luminosity and weight.

As is now customary for the collection arising from this partnership, the designers and watchmakers joined forces from the very start of the project.  They decided to give the same importance to the three main mechanical groups contained within a watch movement: the energy, time display, and regulating organ, which here is a patented double-sided flying tourbillon. Each of these three groups was positioned in order to achieve balance and symmetry, characteristics which are held in the highest esteem by the project’s protagonists.

From the outset, movement and case were considered as a single entity, developed conjointly to yield optimum esthetics, transparency and ergonomics. Throughout the piece’s development, the designers were inspired by its technological features, which led them to give it an original face. Conversely, Pininfarina’s style inspired the BOVET watchmakers to even greater heights of innovation as they sought to fulfill Mr. Raffy’s visual and structural directive of lightness.

The BOVET artisans rose to multiple challenges, including the machining and three-dimensional decoration of the mainplate. So as not to hinder the lateral transparency created by the original sapphire crystals encircling the case middle, BOVET’s technicians imagined an ingenious casing system that also significantly reduced the thickness of the timepiece.  The technical specifications alone will satisfy the most demanding connoisseurs. A single barrel keeps the double-sided flying tourbillon revolving for more than 10 days. The tourbillon’s architecture and design increase both the piece’s accuracy and transparency, since its attachments are practically invisible. Lastly, a spherical differential halves the time it takes to wind the piece without increasing the torque of the winding mechanism. This plethora of innovations led to the filing of three international patents.

Despite the enthusiasm generated by this collection, a total of only 86 timepieces are to be manufactured. Out of respect for the Maison’s collectors, Pascal Raffy took the bold decision to limit the series by the total number of movements. With this same focus on service, each Ottantasei benefits from a five-year international guarantee.
