Lorier ZephyrvsLinde Werdelin Oktopus Moon Gold Black Ink

Owners widely praise the Lorier Zephyr for its stunning guilloche-style dial, refined and perfectly sized unique case shape, and comfortable wearability. The Miyota 9 series movement is noted by owners as being a little noisy, with a rotor whirring audible on quick hand movements. On balance, owners rate the Lorier Zephyr highly for its distinctive dial and case design at the price.

The Linde Werdelin Oktopus Moon Gold Black Ink is noted for its cohesive and impressive design, featuring a photorealistic moon phase display. Reviewers highlight the three-layer skeletonized dial with Côtes de Genève finishing on the lower dial, and the moon phase is visible in the dark. However, the rose gold accents on the dial and hands are considered suboptimal for low-light readability, and the crown guards are described as significantly sharp. The Oktopus II Moon Gold is priced at CHF 27,000 (ex VAT). On balance, reviewers praise the Oktopus Moon Gold Black Ink for its striking design and detailed dial work, tempered by concerns over low-light legibility and sharp crown guards.
