Pictured:

1. Laine Gelidus 2 with a sandy brown dial, or mossy green depending on lighting

2. ABP Concept - Ostrich in metallic khaki

All said and done, I like this watch for its embellished simplicity. It now has a strap (after three attempts) that does the trick for me.

What a watch, and what a combo! Pure class, my friend! The backside of this Laine is as tempting as the front. And Iβ€˜m a sucker for these matte dials. Enjoy the read! Daniel

As for the watch, these Laines are interesting combinations of old-world charm (owing to that stately Unitas movement), mass industrial feel (an unfussy, chunky case), a shot of refinement (courtesy of its applied Breguet numerals), and pizzazz (finishing on both dial and movement). Then there's its audible tick-tock, which transports me back to childhood. That's quite a lot to savour for the price.
