Monta NoblevsLinde Werdelin Spidospeed Titanium – 3D Movement

The Monta Noble is widely praised for its slim 9.7mm case, excellent finishing comparable to higher-end brands, and highly adjustable bracelet. Owners note its versatility and accuracy, with one reporting +2 sec/day. The well-executed date at six is also a positive point. However, some find the dial proportions off with small indices and too much open space, and the polished bezel a scratch magnet. There are mixed opinions on the clasp, with some finding it fiddly and others praising its adjustability. The crown action is described by one owner as mediocre, and a visible gasket is noted. The Monta Noble is priced at $1,600-$1,795 and features a Sellita SW300-based M-22 movement. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Monta Noble highly for its slim profile and exceptional finishing at its price point.

The Linde Werdelin Spidospeed Titanium – 3D Movement is praised for its comfortable wearability, with reviewers noting its light presence on the wrist despite a 44mm diameter, attributed to forged carbon and titanium construction. The skeletonized dial is described as dynamic, though some find it slightly busy for time-reading. One reviewer appreciated the dial's design and legibility, while another noted improved, though still less attractive, chronograph pushers compared to earlier designs. The watch features a Concepto automatic movement and is limited to 99 or 100 pieces depending on the specific model, with prices around CHF 21,000 or 11,760 euros. On balance, reviewers highlight the Spidospeed Titanium – 3D Movement's innovative material use and comfortable wearability as its strongest attributes.
