LAINE, G2, AN ATTRACTIVE STAINLESS STEEL WRISTWATCH WITH ARABIC NUMERALS

Torsti Laine’s abilities as a watchmaker have been widely recognised since he was awarded the A. Lange & Söhne F.A. Lange Watchmaking Excellence Award in 2014. As one of his latest watches, Laine has moved in the direction of a classic, Calatrava-inspired wristwatch. When following the gilded path of one of watchmaking’s most treasured creations, Laine has been sure to bring his highest of standards.

The dial of the Gelidus 2 is made entirely in-house. The watch’s polished syringe style hands are crafted from steel. The Gelidus features the same two hardened steel bridges found in the 1817 model, but now the pieces feature a modernity in dimensional barrel bridge. In addition, screw and jewel sinks and bridge chamfers have been polished by hand. This watch is furthermore the only example found with a distinctive Arabic green fumé dial.
