Uwe is correct, it is better by far to try different watches before selecting and buying. But this is where the problem lies with Laco, well outside Germany at least. Uwe describes a network of shops across the country where you can experiment with different Laco watches. But very different in the UK and I suspect other countries. I'm torn between a Friedrichshafen and a Paderborn but as Uwe says, I really need to try both to see whether I like the size, the weight, how they sit, but I can't see that happening unless I make a trip to Germany.
