Laco Flieger Erbstuck Watches Are Meticulously Hand-Aged
German Laco watches aren’t a brand I discuss too often, but if you are in the market for a traditional-looking German military watch, it is one of the brands you should be looking at – especially given their prices. I recently learned of a rather interesting/amusing sub-collection of their Flieger vintage-style pilot watches which exhibit an interesting level of effort not commonly seen in commercially available timepieces. Not that these “heirloom” (what “erbstuck” translates into) Laco Flieger Erbstuck watches certainly aren’t for everyone, but they are worth learning about.In a nutshell, the Laco Pilot/Flieger Erbstuck watches are hand-aged to make them look like used, antique military watches. Yes, in essence you are paying for someone’s time and effort into handcrafting scratches, scrapes, wear, discoloration, and age. To some people this is total madness, and for others this is the perfect way of getting a particular aesthetic look
