... 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 like pocket watch speed. While I would like to know more about the source, I'll say this - I sure love the tremblage finish on the bridges.
There are a couple of independent watch dealers, such as Martin Pulli, selling the guilloche watch for $8,800, which seems like a very good value for such a highly decorated dial. Engine-turning is a 300-year-old skill, passed on through a multitude of generations - the real deal cannot be faked. Always best to see engine-turned dials 'in-the-real' before purchase. Let us know what you think when you get yours.

i read about his when he won the Lange Award some years back - i think that itself is a strong credibility to his ability !
i'm equally interested to read from others or any one who has one of Laine's watches. Best, mahesh.,
I would google "laine valjoux deployant" if you want to see his finishing skills
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

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.
I own a Laine
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 guil...
Yes, here is my Laine piece
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 ...
