Laine watches ?

Hello all, 


Anyone heard of this relatively new brand?

https://www.lainewatches.com/

My AD introduced this brand to me. Watches uses generic movement but have a high degree of hand finishing and price is reasonable. 
They make their own dial. 

I am interested in one of their Gelidus collection which is a simple 3hand manual wind watch. 

Any feedback will be appreciated as there is so little info on line.

I’ve owned an 1817 model for almost a year.

His superb hand finishing of the Laine Chronograph. Several parts have been wholly replaced by Torsti in order to be up to his standard. You’ll be happy you got a piece from him and you’re supporting real live Watchmaking by an individual who loves what h...
