Laco Introduced Limited Edition Pilot Duo With Military Look

 Dear Readers, 

German Timepiece Brand Laco Presents Second Limited Edition "Augsburg Oliv 39" and Aachen Oliv 39" In Olive Green

 

Laco Limited Edition Augsburg Oliv 39"

 

In this modern year, timepiece has been an important ornament for everyone, especially the White-Collar worker to look professional and presentable. Looking at the success of the Oliv 42" models that launched last year and sold out in a very short time, Laco returned this year by introducing two limited editions of pilot watches with a trendy military look. 

The limited edition timepieces are Augsburg Oliv 39" and Aachen Oliv 39" that present the classic typography of the famous observation watches with their dials in a refined shade. As mentioned these are limited edition watches, each of the designs are available in 250 units only. 

 

Bronze-Colored Case And Retro-Look Strap - Aachen Oliv 39"

 

The authentic vintage charm is underlined by the bronze-colored case and the retro-look strap. The stainless steel case is covered with a bronze-colored PVD coating which emphasizes the "used look" character. 

The warm hue harmonizes expressively with the olive green dial that was inspired by the military units and special commandos. This will provide a natural tone that fits the background for the strikingly matter-of-fact typography. 

 

Reduced Case Size by 3 mm to 39 mm For Slimmer Appearance

 

In this 2022's edition, Laco has reduced the case size by 3 mm to 39 mm that offers a slimmer appearance and perfect to be worn on narrower wrists.

Most importantly, the numerals, indexes and hands of the watch are coated with the luminous Superluminova "Old Radium" which has a brownish vintage tone during the day, but glows intensely green in the dark. 

Numerals, Indexes and Hands Coated With Superluminova "Old Radium"

For over a century, these pilot watches have been flying high and recognized as one of the most successful watch types ever with its own great popularity for the unmistakable design and functionality it demonstrates in all its elements. 

 

Laco stands for pilot watches like hardly any other brand and presents not only the authentic replicas of the historical originals, but also the modern interpretation. To this day, these timepieces radiate the elemental spirit of adventure and inspire explorers and individualists with an active lifestyle. 

 

Perfect Timepiece With Active Lifestyle - Aachen Oliv 39"

These watches are powered with a precise drive provided by the high-quality automatic movement Laco 21 which can be seen through the sapphire crystal case back. This is based on the proven Miyota 821A caliber and it offers a power reserve of 42 hours with a stop-second function, which allows precise setting of the time. 

Optionally, Laco also offers the option of upgrading the precise drive to the Laco 31 caliber which offers an increased power reserve of over 60 hours with thermally blued screws as an additional visual highlight.

Last but not least, the distinctive "field watch" look is complemented by the rugged vintage-look leather straps and as a tribute to the history of the pilot watch, they are equipped with decorative rivets like the buckle that pick up the color tone of the case.

About Laco

 

The German watch brand Laco, based in the black forest town Pforzheim, has a corporate history that stretches back to 1925. The "Golden City" has been the location for this small but long-established manufacturer from the very beginning. 

 

This traditional company earned its fame by constructing the legendary 55 mm sized observation watch, as one of only five licensed companies in the 1940s. Around twenty years later,  with more than 1200 employees, Laco was counted as one of Germany's largest watch manufacturers. 

Today, the small team places emphasis again on handcraft. It is quality that counts in production, not quantity. The products range from pilot and navy watches, through to elegant chronographs and the purist Classic Line. 

But all Laco models have one thing in common: the highest quality, outstanding design and functionality in use. In addition to their own online shop, Laco also offers for sale at the factory in Pforzheim. From Monday to Friday,  this offers an opportunity to pick up a new watch directly from where experienced watchmakers have manufactured it intricately by hand.
