Independent watchmakers Tim and Bart Gronefeld have quietly launched a new brand of more affordable watches than those in their Gronefeld collection.

The new brand is called Grone Oldenzaal and the launch model is called the Manueel One ‘Sjef’s One’. It costs just 2,150 euros and is a limited edition of 388 pieces (not individually numbered).

In honor of their father’s 83rd birthday, Bart and Tim dedicated the GRØNE Manueel One nicknamed ‘Sjef’s One’ to him.

This launch series is limited to just 388 pieces and I think that they will sell out quickly, it will be interesting to see just how quickly.
