Laco_Piloten_1942.gif

It got cold in those planes, the crowns were large
so the boys in the air could wind them with their gloves on. The movements were the best German watchmakers could manage, mostly pocket watch movements so the watches were large, legible and worn over the jacket sleeve.  Laco was chosen along with Wempe, IWC, Stowa, and A. Lange to produce these watches for the Luftwaffe. Today Laco makes the most accurate (albeit in more usable sizes) tributes ever offered while incorporating the best 
technologies of the modern era.

 Laco's collection of 40's style pilot watches
 pays homage to the original as never before.
 The bead blasted case features historically
 acurate markings on the side and on the 
 solid steel caseback. Note that the watches
 don't show the date or logo on the dial, as
 was the case with the original military issue
 and they offer period correct blue hands. 
 Anti-reflective (AR coating on the inside of the glass) 
 domed sapphire crystal 
help emulate 
 the look of the old bubble style hesalite crystals.

 Laco watches carry 2 year warranty.
The collection below represents Laco's most accurate homage to the original look (in smaller than 55mm size) ever. These watches emulate the original dark gray finish & the hands are actually blued in a thermal process as in the old days.

   

Available in 42mm & 45mm cases and in Swiss made quartz & automatic or hand wound mechanical executions, all watches have A/R coated sapphire crystals.
All models in this series will hack set so you can synchronize with the rest of your squadron
