Laco Friedrichshafen Type B Dial Swiss Automatic Pilot Watch with Bronze Case #862086
The Laco Friedrichshafen model with a type B dial was inspired by the original WWII Laco Pilot watches. The 45mm case is forged out of Bronze. The watch is designed to patina over time, which gives the wearer a truly unique timepiece as it ages. The watch comes in vacuum sealed plastic to prevent the bronze from getting a patina until you wear the watch.Inside is a Swiss Laco 24 automatic (self-winding) movement. The thermal blued hands and the dial markers are treated with SuperLuminova C3 for excellent readability in the dark. Like the original WWII Laco watches, there is no date window. Features a 45mm sandblasted case, a scratch resistant domed sapphire front crystal, and an engraved steel case back. Like the original Luftwaffe models, the unique Laco case has FL23883 engraved on the 9:00 side. Includes a brown leather strap with rivets.
Note: This watch is not returnable due its special packaging and bronze case.
