I started a recent hashtag on Instagram called #TorstiTuesdays

He makes great bespoke pieces by hand for a reasonable price. The one you are looking is the Laine GG the pics I am sharing with you is the recent Gelidus 2. The GG has a very nice turned guilloche done by hand! I am very happy with the timepiece!

The before and after of the Valjoux 22 movement is remarkable. He did an incredible job finishing it and added multiple in house parts. It speaks to his ability as a creative mind in terms of movements AND his movement finishing skills

... What a beautiful dial. And it comes in multiple colors. I am liking the purple and the green. The brand also has other watches, including a skeleton piece. Hard to tell what movement they are using, save for it to say that it runs at 2.5Hz, which is l... 

2.5 Hz is fine for a seconds sub-dial.

The hand movement will look smooth compared to a central hand, and it extends power reserve without a lot of highly polished going train components to reduce friction.

producing some great watches.

He is a MASTER with the dials. You can see the amazing spiral guilloche done here. Some brands charge a similar price JUST for the dial as Laine charges for the whole darn watch! I had a custom made "Hindi numeral" dial made by Laine. His blue dial has a ...
