Launch of Sea Instrument

In April 2008, LINDE WERDELIN unveiled the Sea Instrument; the world’s first luxury dive computer.

Pushing the boundaries of the modern day dive computer the Sea Instrument blends groundbreaking technology, precision and craftsmanship with the very best in Danish design and software. The Sea Instrument easily attaches on top of the LINDE WERDELIN Biformeter watches, for divers of all abilities.

Developed in conjunction with professional divers, it won’t protect the user against sharks but provides protection, guidance and re-experience when needed.

"We are very excited about the launch of the new LINDE WERDELIN Sea Instrument. This is the first time that such a sophisticated piece of sports equipment has been achieved with a truly luxurious finish," comments Morten Linde.

LINDE WERDELIN has pioneered this entirely unique idea; seamlessly blending timekeeping sophistication with ultra-powerful yet easy to use digital sports instruments. By launching the Sea Instrument, the Founders, Morten Linde and Jorn Werdelin, achieve their goal of bringing their original idea for LINDE WERDELIN full circle. The idea of elegant watches with a family of attachable digital sports instruments bringing on the spot precision on land or in the sea.

The LINDE WERDELIN Sea Instrument will be available later this year.

Sure, there's plenty of basic dive computers out there, but if you really want to get some attention under the sea, you may want to consider something like Linde Wrdelin's new "Sea Instrument," which can even be had in a special 18K yellow gold edition if you want to go all out. Whether you opt for that or the basic anodized aluminum model, however, you'll get the same transflective color display and sapphire crystal glass cover designed to be readable underwater, along with a 3-axis compass and access to all the vital information you'll need including depth, dive time, decompression stops, and temperature, to name a few, not to mention a rechargeable battery that promises to deliver 28 hours of continuous use. Of course, all that doesn't exactly come cheap, with the aluminum version alone running €2,100 (or about $3,000). Oh, and you'll also need a Linde Werdelin Biformeter watch to attach it to, which is only a few grand more.

Sure beats the early divecomps we used to use. Wow!

I'm a watch and dive table guy myself but it does look pretty cool.
