Before launching, Linde Werdelin spent a great deal of time investigating what type of movement should use, and ultimately they chose the ETA2892 and ETA 2893 (GMT). In 2008, the brand moved into a different level of watchmaking, as a sophisticated independent watchmaker, when they began work on the Oktopus and Spido families, alongside movement specialist Frederic Piguet (Oktopus Tattoo and the Oktopus Moon). The brand also worked with Danish watchmaker Svend Andersen on a modified A Schild movement. The brand breakthrough was the launch of a limited series of 44 pieces of the SpidoLite SA with Andersen at Basel in 2009 – both in terms of the case, the idea and the choice of movement. Many visitors and colleagues came to see only that specific model and sold all 44 pieces immediately.
