Batholith's post highlights the exceptional value and personalized experience offered by independent watchmaker Laine, particularly praising Torsti Laine's craftsmanship and customer service. This discussion delves into the unique appeal of Laine watches, exploring customization options and the challenges and joys of ownership, from dial preferences to strap pairings. It underscores why collectors are drawn to independent artisans who deliver high quality at accessible price points.




How does his ordering process work? Were you able to customize anything?
I simply got in touch with Torsti via his website and then emailed back and forth a few times, paid a deposit, balance upon completion. Other than the usual choices he offers (color of movement, name tag or print, choice of numerals), I asked for no numerals and a stepped dial. I am sure he is open to discuss further modifications as well. Very easy to deal with and a real gentleman who goes out of his way to make things right for the customer.
Congrats! George
