New to our features section, a brief overview of watch company Linde Werdelin. Covered are watches, instruments, and illustrations. Check it out here.

Switzerland’s Linde Werdelin pronounces their watches – the Elemental and Two Timer – as "the only true sports watch of today." Their claim is a strong one seeing as their watches allow for the attacement of a variety of Instruments to the face of their chronos. Example: the "Land Instrument" is a a basic avalanche sensor that captures temperature changes for the mountaineer and skiier. Their "Sea Instrument" is a dive computer with a transreflective screen. The great thing is that both instruments can be used independent of the watch, so stick it on or off as needed. Much more information at lindewerdelin.com.

I think may well be cooler than the carbon fiber fork on my road bike (and Yo Yo rocks one!).

Luis and Clark of Milton, MA has taken the carbon fiber movement to some of the world’s most classical instruments. In a profession where old woods make the best sounds, a carbon fiber instrument may come off as too progressive, but once you listen and watch the testimonials on their website, you’ll soon appreciate the skill it took in re-introducing such instruments to new molds and materials.

The carbon fiber cello seen above is an incredible example of what can be made. Super light weight and strong, Luis and Clark’s Carbon Fiber Instruments may well be the future the classics have been waiting for.
