Computer technology, unlike wrist fake watch technology, has no choice but to be upgraded continuously. So here is the upgraded Land Instrument from Linde Werdelin. What is it you may ask (for those uninitiated)? In a nutshell, it is a sensor-based device that gives you lots of important information using data collected from an internal compass, barometer, altimeter, inclination meter, and separate (but wirelessly connected thermometer). It also has an optional wireless heart rate monitor that straps around your chest. Using all this information in conjunction with the native ability to process it and store it ?gives you an instrument, the Land Instrument II to be exact (now called "The Rock?. Along with that, there are basic functions including alarms, stopwatches, the time, and lots of logging capabilities. The Rock now also features that ability to connect with a GPS device. For a good idea of the functions of a Linde Werdelin Land Instrument, read my review here.

Advertising MessageAsking yourself what the Land Instrument II changes over the Land Instrument? It is more than just the better looking presentation, but rather that everything has been beefed up. The Instrument has more memory, more logging functions, a longer battery life, has wirelessly upgradeable software, is GPS device ready. It is also important to note that each of the sensors (and their corresponding algorithmic software) have been tweaked resulting in more accuracy and effectiveness all around.As a plus, the Land Instrument II now also features a ski area restaurant guide ?no joke.
Like the original Land Instrument, the Rock works independently or with a Linde Werdelin watch. The device actually clips on top of Linde Werdelin watches, or can be clipped on a variety of mounts. From the list above you can tell that The Rock will be available in a variety of colors. With aluminum, DLC coated version and in gold, the line of Instruments is really growing up. Although you'd need to charge it regularly the Land Instrument would make an awesome fake watch as well. To do that, you can get an option wrist mount (different than the replica watches you can clip it on). The device is due for official announcement at Baselworld soon. Prices start at 990 Euros with the gold models being a few times that. www.lindewerdelin.com
