Featuring lovely hand bevelling and the addition of black polished balance and escape cocks as an option. The dials are available with either center guilloché or meteorite for an additional fee over the base moon frosted center dial. The guilloché dials are hand done in Le Locle and then colored by Torsti and his team in La Chaux-de-Fonds.

Laine G3 is the next generation model of popular G2 where the dial is now constructed from separate parts that allows use of different materials, colors and finishing. Center can be hand turned guilloché in three different patterns, Panier, Gran de riz and flammé. Center can also have Moonfrosting - strongly uneven engraved surface or Muonionalusta meteorite with it's easily recognizable Winmanstätten pattern. Mirror polished Breguet numerals are made from white gold, and can also have blue PVD plating for light colored dials. Hands are made from steel and can be heat blued for white and salmon dials.
On the movement we have three different decoration options, “Classic” frosted finish with steel nameplate as in Laine G2, “Signature” engraving designed by graphic designer Tomasz Biernat and “Abstract” calligraphy decoration. Movement colors can be yellow gold, rose gold or rhodium. Hardened and tempered steel bridges for escapement and balance wheel have hand polished chamfers and linear satin finish as standard. Steel screws are polished individually by hand to high black polish.
