The Laco Kiel Sport enriches the characteristic DNA of Laco's pilot watch chronographs with a sporty accent. In contrast to the classic Kiel models, the Laco Kiel Sport features a unidirectional rotating bezel. Nonetheless, with its unmistakably striking design and high functionality, the Laco Kiel Sport reflects the enduring connection between Laco and aviation that has lasted for more than 80 years. The Laco Kiel Sport combines dynamic elegance with functional sophistication. With its 43mm case, the Laco 500 chronograph movement, and a particularly striking design, it excels both in daily wear and during outdoor activities. It captivates not only pilots but also anyone who appreciates the extraordinary. The authentic pilot watch aesthetic is unmistakably displayed on the dial, deliberately kept in matte black to avoid reflections and ensure quick, glare-free readability from every angle. The 43mm case, which is pressure-tested up to 10 ATM, is crafted from high-quality stainless steel and mattified with a striking dark sandblasting. This type of surface finishing not only gives it a monochromatic appearance but also bridges the gap to other Laco pilot watches that share this distinctive feature. The bezel of the Laco Kiel Sport stands out for its particularly grippy design, allowing effortless operation even when wearing gloves. With its unidirectional rotation and precise 60-click mechanism, it serves not only as a sporty design element but also as a technical feature. For exceptional functionality and unmatched durability, the insert is made of high-quality ceramic, offering numerous advantages including exceptional hardness and scratch resistance, colour stability, and corrosion resistance. Inside, elegantly nestled behind a sapphire crystal exhibition caseback, the automatic chronograph calibre, Laco 500, reliably performs its duties. The movement is based on the renowned Swiss calibre, Sellita SW500. In addition to the classic chronograph functions, it also displays the day of the week and the date. A full winding of the Laco 500 ensures an impressive power reserve of 56 hours. The bright indices, Arabic numerals, and the hands, with those for hours and minutes thermally blued, create clear contrasts under the anti-reflective sapphire crystal and harmoniously integrate into the Tricompax design. For optimal readability even in adverse lighting conditions, there is generous coating of intensely luminous Superluminova C3 on the hands, numerals, indices, and the pilot's triangle. This ensures outstanding readability even in darkness – an essential criterion for precise timekeeping. The minute scale of the unidirectional rotating bezel is also coated with this luminescent substance, emitting a greenish glow in darkness. The Laco Kiel Sport combines authentic pilot watch aesthetics with high-quality material selection, as seen in the timeless black calf leather strap with contrasting light stitching. The soft leather provides comfortable wear and harmoniously underscores the sporty elegance of the watch. A dark sandblasted buckle, echoing the matte finish of the case, secures the strap. Even this small detail emphasizes the high standard of aesthetics and quality that runs throughout the design of the watch. Technical Specifications Case size: 43mm Case material: Stainless steel, dark sandblasted Case back: Sapphire crystal Movement type: Automatic Movement no.:  Laco 500 based on Sellita SW500 Power reserve: Approx 56hrs Dial: Black matte dial, Arabic figures and indexes with luminous material SuperLuminova C3 Glass: Double-domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating  Water resistance: 10ATM Strap type: Strap Strap material: Black calf leather Buckle: Tang buckle Warranty: 2 years

The Laco Hamburg DIN 8330 watches are certified to the exacting standards of the German DIN 8330 norm, which sets out specific requirements for pilot watches. This standard ensures that pilot watches meet certain criteria in terms of accuracy, readability and functionality.

Compliance with this standard ensures that pilot watches meet aviation requirements and are completely reliable, even in critical situations. With the certification of the two models, Laco underlines its technical expertise and ongoing commitment to the needs of pilots, as well as the aviation industry, and can ensure that the models meet the highest standards.

The Laco Cuxhaven is inspired by the classic navy pocket watches from the 1940s and combines traditional craftsmanship with timeless elegance. It embodies a piece of maritime history with historically accurate details. The Laco Cuxhaven 39 with a reduced case diameter at 39mm opens up new possibilities for watch enthusiasts who prefer a more compact model without having to sacrifice the charming vintage look. It continues to impress with a glossy white dial that is complemented by a beige calfskin strap which develops its own patina after a short time and gives the watch a vintage charm.  To ensure good readability even at night and under poor visibility conditions, the numerals, indexes and hands are coated with the luminous material SuperLuminova C3. The Laco Cuxhaven 39 comes with thermally blued hands and loving details reminiscent of the historical originals. A modern reinterpretation of maritime classics, the Laco Cuxhaven is as timeless as it is elegant.

With this navy watch, the Laco Cuxhaven, German watchmaker Laco combines function and design of two seafaring classics: the 1940s pocket watch and a model resembling the watches of the crew on board of the "U1" submarine. Manual wind movement, dial and casing are essentially just as they were in the watches' predecessors. However, the modern wrist watch "Made in Germany" has been made to have a more optically pleasing appearance. One special feature is the prominently large transparent base which allows you to see the elegant clockwork. Seafaring has hugely shaped the development of accurate timepieces. The pocket watch originally served as a means of exact time measurement and to determine geographical distances independently from landmarks. From a visual perspective, the features officially decided upon by the German naval observatory have become popular because of their clear readability - for example, matt-black Arabian numerals and the railway-themed minute circle have been characteristics of Laco pocket watches for ages. This is shown by both the model produced for the German Navy in the 1940s and the modern "Wilhelmshaven" edition. Similar details can in turn be found in the submarine watch with the Unitas clockwork 6498 - a wrist watch which was made in limited edition in collaboration with Deutsche Post in the mid-2000s. The advent of the new navy watch enables Laco to close the circle and present a modern wristwatch which combines the qualities of the two prototypes. For example, it includes a sturdy stainless steel casing, a subsidiary seconds display in the number 6 position, numerals and indices treated with afterglow Superluminova C3 paint and a wind-up calibre. The Laco 98 clockwork is based on the Swiss ETA 6498.1. Its high-grade components such as the thermally blued screws and various decorative cuts are visibly highlighted by the sapphire glass base. The bright-coloured Laco Cuxhaven variant is beautifully adorned with a white dial and a cream-coloured leather strap. The name is evocative of maritime cities - just like with the "Wilhelmshaven" pocket watch.  Technical Specifications Case size: 42.5mm Case material: Stainless steel case with a polished and brushed finish Case back: Exhibition caseback with sapphire crystal Movement type: Manual Movement no.:  Laco 98 based on ETA Unitas 6498.1 Power reserve: Approx 53hrs Dial: White in enamel optic, railway minute circle, arabic numerals and indexes with luminous material Superluminova C3, small second at 6 o'clock; thermically blued hour, minute and second hands with the former two filled with SuperLuminova C3 Glass: Sapphire crystal Water resistance: 10ATM Strap type: Strap Strap material: Cream calf Buckle: Stainless steel tang buckle Warranty: 2 years

With polar white dials and shimmering blue indexes, the limited edition Polar Augsburg and Polar Aachen Augsburg are a new, fashionable interpretation of Laco pilot watches. Only 250 pieces of each model are available worldwide. The thermally blued hands, used here for the first time in Laco's basic pilot watch series and the blue, metallic shimmering indexes are in perfect harmony. Depending on the incidence of light and the angle of view, these appear from deep blue to azure, accompanied by bright, ice-blue reflections - like the play of light between the dark polar sea and glittering icebergs. During the day, the hands and numerals covered with Superluminova appear in a light green against the snow-white dial. Quite in contrast to the strong turquoise-blue glow in the darkness - like a glow in the polar night. The Laco Polar Augsburg follows the design of the classic Type A dial and ensures clear readability with hour, minute and central seconds. The Laco Polar Aachen adopts the familiar Type B of historical navigation watches, which displays the hour circle on the inside and the minute scale on the outside. Both watches have a case diameter of 42mm and a brown calfskin strap with the decorative rivets typical of pilot watches. Technical Specifications Limited edition: Only 250 pieces available worldwide Case size: 42mm Case material: Stainless steel case Case back: Exhibition caseback with sapphire crystal Movement type: Automatic Movement no.:  Laco 2S based on Miyota 82S0 Power reserve: Approx 42hrs Dial: White matte dial with numbers with Superluminova C3 Blue Line, blue shimmering indexes; thermal blued hands, filled with luminous material Superluminova C3 Blue Line Glass: Sapphire crystal Water resistance: 5ATM Strap type: Leather Strap material: Brown calf with rivets Buckle: Tang buckle Warranty: 2 years

The Laco Grau Augsburg 39 is a replica of the original pilot watches from the 1940s with a Type A (Baumaster A) design dial. This features a classic dial with 11 Arabic numerals and a triangle with two dots instead of the number at 12 o'clock. It features an updated colourway and comes with cool grey hues. There are pilot watches. And then there is the pilot watch from Laco. As one of a few exclusive companies producing original pilot watches, the workshop in Pforzheim can look back on a long tradition. Whereas in the 1940s, a Laco was an indispensable tool in the cockpit, today it is an expression of freedom. With a Laco aviator watch, you are not only wearing a precise and robust watch on your wrist, but also a piece of history. Regardless of which Laco aviator watch you choose, all models have one thing in common: a legendary history. In the 1940s, only a handful of companies received permission to manufacture pilot watches. One of them was Laco. The detailed requirements laid down for observation watches for the German Air Force were formulated by the Ministry of Aviation under the classification "FL 23883". This number stood for "navigation devices" and could also be seen on each watch on the opposite side of the winder. As authentic replicas of historical Laco aviator watches from the 1940s, the current models are characterised by their high precision combined with outstanding design. The main characteristics of a Laco aviator watch are, among other things, the iconic watch face, the distinctive onion-shaped crown, the closed leather strap and the surface finish of the casing. Robust aviator watches with distinctive marks that tell a story are the "heirlooms" of Laco. The unique and intentional signs of wear on the aviator watches attest to their authenticity and an eventful history - and turns each "heirloom" into a high-quality one-of-a-kind item. In other words: a legend that Laco's watchmakers build with devotion - and Laco's customers wear with passion. Technical Specifications Case size: 39mm Case material: Matte finish stainless steel case Case back: Exhibition caseback with sapphire crystal Movement type: Automatic Movement no.:  Laco 2S based on Miyota 82S0 Power reserve: Approx 42hrs Dial: Grey matte dial with SuperLuminova BGW9-coated hands, numerals and indices Glass: Sapphire crystal Water resistance: 5ATM Strap type: Leather Strap material: Grey calf with rivets Buckle: Tang buckle Warranty: 2 years

Robust, versatile, and luminous in the dark: a scorpion has the qualities it needs to thrive in many different environments. The same applies to the Laco Amazonas, which is also suitable for a wide range of applications. That's why the watch also features appropriate markings as a special highlight: a relief design in the form of a scorpion. The four timekeepers of the Laco Amazonas collection share the same black dial with white arabic numerals as well as the shape of their casing. Depending on the model they differ in their visual colour accents, with the black, unidirectional bezel, the indices and the minute hand being coated in luminous Superluminova paint in white, green, blue, or orange. The long-lasting afterglow effect ensures optimal readability in low lighting conditions or even complete darkness. This is another aspect where the scorpion analogy is appropriate: the scorpion produces fluorescent materials that make it visible at night under UV lighting. With its solid exoskeleton, the scorpion is also exceptionally tough and strong for its small size. This is another characteristic that applies to this squad watch. The 42mm diameter Laco Amazonas model also resists external influences. This is assured thanks to the solid stainless steel case, and the fact that both the caseback and the crown are screwed into place. The double domed sapphire crystal is scratch-resistant. Its internal anti-reflective coating means that reflections are reduced, with improved transparency. The watch is also waterproof to 30 atmospheres and, to ensure that the watch can be used to the full in the water, different models are available, with a choice of a black rubber or stainless steel strap. The "Scorpion" combines practical functionality with sophisticated looks. It fulfils its potential in a variety of different settings. From the mountains to the desert or tropical rainforests, this flexible sports watch is ready for daily use in outdoor environments. The names of the four models reflect its purpose, namely Himalaya, Amazonas, Atlantik and Mojave. Technical Specifications Case size: 42mm Case material: Stainless steel case, screwed down crown with crown guard; unidirectional rotating ceramic bezel Case back: Solid stainless steel caseback with scorpion relief engraving Movement type: Automatic Movement no.:  Laco 200 based on Sellita SW200 Power reserve: Approx 38hrs Dial: Black matte dial with numerals and indices coated in SuperLuminova C3; white minue track; hour hand filled with luminous material SuperLuminova C3; minute hand filled with SuperLuminova green; second hand white and filled with SuperLuminova green Glass: Double-domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating  Water resistance: 30ATM Strap type: Strap Strap material: Black rubber Buckle: Tang buckle Warranty: 2 years

The Laco Aachen Blaue Stunde 39 is part of the Blaue Stunde collection of pilot watches. Blaue Stunde translates to "twilight hour" in German and references that short period between dusk and dawn or dawn and dusk that the sky turns an immaculate blue.

The Laco Erbstück Heidelberg 39 is part of Laco's Erbstück collection. Inspired by the original 55mm sized observation watches from the 1940s, the Laco Erbstück collection's models look as if they have been worn over several generations.

All components - case, dial, hands or strap - are aged individually and by hand, using a work-intensive procedure without mechanical aids, so the ageing looks absolutely authentic and none is alike. This gives the Laco Erbstück watches the appeal of an historic timepiece, making each one completely unique - as individual and distinctive as its owner!  Technical Specifications Case size: 39mm Case material: Stainless steel case, elaborately hand-finished in an antique look with lateral engraving FL23883; crown execution like original Beobachtungsuhr Case back: Hand-aged stainless steel caseback with engraving Movement type: Automatic Movement no.:  Laco 200 based on Sellita SW200 Power reserve: Approx 42hrs Dial: Type A black matte dial with luminous indices in Superluminova C3, like the case in antique look; thermally blued steel hands with Superluminova coating, elaborate hand-finishing ages each watch individually  Glass: Sapphire crystal Water resistance: 5ATM Strap type: Leather Strap material: Closed loop pilot's brown calf vintage leather strap with rivets Buckle: Tang buckle Warranty: 2 years
