Some additional pictures of the Laine up close. It has been a very satisfying watch, my only gripe is one I have with several watches...I just wish it was a little bit smaller. I know I’ve said this before so apologies in advance for my repetition. Some p...

What struck me on first scroll is that many of these piece I see share a common theme, a non traditional aesthetic / design either in case or dial or both. We obviously buy what we like but I do think many of these pieces will because of how they look hav...
