Going off of what people have mentioned in earlier threads, I believe there are references to munitions-grade, late-medieval plate armor being turned out in a matter of a few days. Though this is more the "one size fits all," mass-produced sort of armor, rather than a custom-fit harness for a particular individual. This probably also assumes a specialized shop with lots of trained labor on hand.
