Alles über die Ligure Founders Edition GMT LWT21008

Everything about the Ligure Founders Edition GMT LWT21008, a diving watch with a Swiss movement and Italian flair.

THE HOUSING

Tartaruga is the Italian word for turtle and these can be found in numerous variations on the coast of the Riviera in Italy, where the inventors of Ligure gathered their inspiration for watches. The case is modeled on the shape of a turtle, no edges, a square, rounded shape with a domed sapphire crystal which curves smoothly and seamlessly over the case like the shell of a turtle. A real eye-catcher in terms of design. The anti-reflective coating and the full anti-reflective coating guarantee optimal readability even in unfavorable lighting conditions.

DIAL AND HANDS

The Founders Edition GMT LWT21008 model has a clearly structured white dial with an accentuated white and red color scheme. It impresses with a striking look, high complexity and design depth. The texture and coloring appear well thought out. The indices are slightly offset and extra polished and, together with the numbers, fit very harmoniously into the overall appearance of the dial. The  Super-LumiNova® illumination coating ensures that the time can be easily read even in the dark.

THE MOVEMENT of the Ligure Founders Edition GMT LWT21008

The Ligure Founders Edition GMT is equipped with a genuine in-house caliber, the ETA2893/2 H5, which, in addition to the higher value, also enables the watch to have an expanded range of functions. In addition to the GTM function, you can set a second time zone, there is a 24-hour hand and an additional anti-shock mechanism that protects the watch from damage. 

BRACELET AND CLASP

THE CASE BASE

The back of the clock is made of stainless steel. Next to the highlighted outline of Italy, the coordinates ofPorto Venere are engraved, a reminiscence of a popular diving area in the Riveria Ligure where there are many shipwrecks.

My conclusion:

"Ligure is an exciting watch brand that I have been following for a long time. Anyone who describes themselves as an Italy connoisseur or lover will most likely relate to the watches whose design origins can be clearly linked to the country on the Mediterranean. The Founders Edition GMT combines these characteristics a manufactory caliber and thus eliminates the argument for ETA movement enthusiasts that they cannot be enthusiastic about a Ligure. If the value stability of the watch is particularly important, choose the Founders edition."
