At 3 o’clock the opening is widened, easing the access to the crown, while at 9 o’clock additional facets have been to enhance the design. All the case facets have been blasted with microbillé treatment.

Lastly the outer case, the bezel and the inner case and certain facets have undergone a special. SpidoLite II Titanium Blue bears a galvanic blue dial with orange details. This particular “electric blue” tone has been achieved uniquely by Linde Werdelin with a bespoke treatment. The dial consists of two skeletonized layers. The lower part carries the Linde Werdelin logo.

The upper dial bears the orange indexes and numerals of the seconds’ sub-dial at 9 o’clock as well as the date function. The numerals of the skeletonised calendar wheel have been amplified, enhancing date readability. The laser-cut date disk blends with the dial and the heat-treated blued steel hands. The SpidoLite II Titanium Blue is powered by the LW 04; caliber 2251, custom-made by Concepto, the independent movement manufacture based in La Chaux de Fonds.

On the front and back of the movement it’s finished with a circular perlage and engraved with the Spido logo. The black rotor bears a blue Linde Werdelin icon. All the screws in the movement are blued steel, matching the hands and have been implemented because of their high-corrosion resistance and to enhance the beauty of the movement. The  result is achieved with a slow and cautious heating process.
