It's not every day you get to review a watch at this price range from a brand that has made some of the most legendary pilots watches of all time.
Released at Baselworld 2018, the new Laco Aachen (type B) not only features a stunning new blue dial to die for, but at 39mm, is also embracing the current trend of more practical sizes.
Join me as I review this modern descendent of the iconic World War 2 Fliegers to find out the positives and negatives. Could this German made automatic be the new best pilot watch under $500? Let’s find out!

Hey TGV! I visited my aunt this weekend in pforzheim where I was born and found out that she used to work in a watch factory... turns out she worked at Laco and made the balancing wheel for the mechanical watches there, she also remembered the building shown in your video. she even showed me some of her old equipment and I tried myself in putting a hairspring into the balancing wheel with the old spare parts she kept over time. what a great coincidence and experience - I had no idea she did this in her life! I felt the need to share this little story with you! Best regards :))

This has probably been the most fascinating episode of TGV. I had no idea so many features of the "pilots' watch" we know of we're attributed because of devices like these. Keep winding that passion.

Why is it that when I see a Laco in photos I think "nice watch" but when I see the equivalent Stowa I think "I want that!". All down to the quality of the photos? Has anyone else had that reaction between two near identical watches? Another great review TGV
@scottparis6355
@scottparis6355 4 года назад
Models vary, but Lacos generally are sandblasted, which is authentic but makes the case dark and dull. Stowas have what I think they call a "Matte" finish, which is brighter and more up-scale looking, imo. Also (again, models vary) Lacos have a flat sapphire crystal, while many Stowas are domed. Finally, the Stowas are generally thinner by a couple of millimeters. To me, while the specs are pretty similar , Stowas just look better.

Bought an aeromatic 40mm 'flieger' to try out the size and type for this kind of watches. It did not disappoint me! I am Defenitely ready for a Laco now. Thanks @The Urban Gentry for another great review! Keep up the good work! Greetings from Holland.

Urban Gentry I noticed your channel when I started getting into buying a watch. I must say that you got me hooked. Not only in watches but in horology as well. It’s super Interesting stuff to see where we came from with time and weird how we (myself at least) go back to mechanical and automatic watches even though better time devices have been made. I bought an invicta pro diver based off your review because it has a seiko in it. Super good so far.

Laco make some of the best flieger watches out there, period. And i admire them for offering nice flieger watches at very affordable prices for those not bothered about quartz or Miyota movements. Their basic series with Miyota movements are brilliant value, a very nice flieger replica with a mechanical movement for a great price, well done them! And there is nothing wrong with Miyota movements, solid and robust movements. I have one of the ETA hand wond models from the next series above, even that one is very well priced for such a nicely finished watch with a hand wound ETA, and these fliegers just make most other pilots watches look a bit ordinary in my opinion. Great watches from a very under rated brand.

Excellent intro! I find the many variations we’re seeing on the original Pflieger very interesting. Many watch companies have them now, some more faithful to the original, such as Stowa, Archimede, IWC, even inexpensive Asian-made such as Watchgecko and Tissell, and now these updated versions from Hamilton, Laco and others. A lot to choose from! I have my eye on the Archimedes B. Uhr in bronze which is a pretty faithful replica. Most people don’t know that some of the original Pflieger’s were made in bronze. This one is a beauty!

I love the movement they picked for the basic fliegers, I am very happy they didn't go with Seiko, its a lot of fun hearing the rotor spinning, it fits the no bs tool watch character so well imo. (Mine 5 years later has hacking)
@johnbenacci2382
@johnbenacci2382 6 лет назад
Your previous review of the Hamilton pilot day/date (the 42 mm Interstellar) helped influence me into purchasing one. It didn't hurt that I was able to get a gray market price of $575. This video reinforces my happiness with that purchase. I do like the gray Nato, I'll be putting one on my Hamilton to be sure.

Just bought this in the 42 size , from the Laco website , two day turnaround from Germany , can't get more authentic than that . I paid , with postage £322 . Plus if you order it directly from them they they deliver it by the Luftwaffe and it gets parachuted in . I have been looking at extending my watch collection for the past 4 months . I have been looking at Omega Seamaster to Breiling heritage 11 and I have settled on this for now . Plus I can hunt for more watches with the money I have saved ha ha . I saw this and thought "I have to have it now." There is a story to tell with it and I just love that ... Plus with the 42 the lug width is 20 not 18 :)

Just purchased a Laco Aachen 42 B Dial for (wait for it..) £155 from Amazon. Albeit it does not have hacking unlike the updated version of the same watch but I'm OK with that especially considering what I paid for it. Can't wait to get my hands on it! Tanks for a great video TGV!

@willkieffer2273
@willkieffer2273 6 лет назад
I was loving the watch until you mentioned the movement. I think it’s a bit odd for a watch that was originally so dependent on accuracy to not even hack. You mentioned the nh35a as a substitute, and I completely agree. I mean the Invicta pro diver has the nh35a, and it’s not even 100$. Anyway, great video nevertheless, I love the history of Fliegers.

We also offer a very similar watch with ETA handwind movement - it's called the "Leipzig Blaue Stunde" www.laco-watches.com/en/watches/pilot-watch-original/pilot-watch-leipzig-blaue-stunde-42mm-handwinding
@leisekreise
@leisekreise 4 года назад
Laco offers more accurate movements, an ETA 2824/2 in top and elabore for around 1100€. This is quite affordable and accurate. The "Traktor" as we call the miyota in German has been tuned to a L21 from laco as it IS hackable right now. It IS loud as hell nur only 10s per day too fast. For a Traktor? Not too bad...

Great review as always, the one Laco that really struck my fancy this year is the 39mm release of the WWII reissue watches. The Heiderberg is the A dial version. You should see it Mark has one he can lend you for review ;) I have the same size wrists as you so it will be interesting to see how the much straighter lugs wear compared to Aachen.

That blue is beautiful for sure. I am tempted to purchase a Flieger at some point with a simple dial. One point i remember Marc saying in one of his videos about pilots watches wash that due to the Chrystal extending further toward the case edge, a smaller diameter watch can actually appear to wear a bit larger on the wrist. I never knew that and it has stuck with me. Hmmm, so many watches, so little funds 😁

@Wolf_K
@Wolf_K 5 лет назад
I have the Aachen 42 (B) and the Miyota movement is very accurate and reliable. I may adjust it by a minute or less every 2 weeks or so. Non hacking isn’t ideal but it doesn’t bother me at all either as I just set it a few seconds fast so I’m never late. ;) Hardly anyone in the modern world, certainly not civilians, need the second hand precision to be 100% accurate. Laco make the most historically accurate Fliegers of all the companies today; such as the Dortmund handaufzug, Paderborn, etc, etc. Regardless of size, they get the case and lugs historically correct. As to the markings, which were originally on the inside of the case back, having these on the outside today is an acceptable and nice touch/change. These lower cost models are very nice and worth every penny in my experience. I’m thinking of getting another variation of it. I’ll get the Dortmund (handaufzug) and Friedrichshafen (Auto) some time when I can spare that much for the both of them but for the time being I love this $400 or so line. Also, the lume on these models outlasts Seiko. It’s excellent.

Nice Review. Pretty much agree with you, except for adding the date. I have a big gripe with the movement choice, and totally agree that especially for this style of watch, since it is known for hackable movements, should have had one installed. Otherwise for this price it is a very well made piece. I would definitely think about buying one if it weren't for the movement choice. Great job as always sir.

Amazing blue on the dial. I would like to see a more rounded crown and like TGV mencioned some polished surfaces. The watch looks great even though the blue on the dial makes in look "less authentic" or "less true" to it's tool/pilot's watch heritage. I'd love the see the packaging too. Great video. 👏

When the crown is pulled if you slightly turn it clockwise and hold it the second hand will hold. Not sure if that's bad for it but its how I was able to set mine to an exact time. I was fortunate and got mine for 289 a few years ago.

As Always, you Hit the nail on the top. I own one: Aachen Blaue Stunde 42mm HACKABLE! I saw the Aachen at my local retailer face to face to my own Shop und Fell in Love with it, when i saw it online in blue. I ordered it with a very attractive discount double blind: one: i never had a Nato strap before, two: i had never Seen it live. I was so excited, when it arrived and they called me to Pick it Up. I LOVE IT! It is worth its price as being one from the original 5, the movement is okay and the lume is SO fantastic. It lasts from 11pm til 7am brightly readable. My Tudor GMT doesnt so that that well. Thank you for your Video, you nailed it. I love them, you already saved a lot of my Money with them...

Laco! They have always been on my radar. I've been tempted for quite a while by their entry level fliegers and navy watches, but unfortunately they reduced their 36mm range (the ideal size for me) to PVD-only case models, which I don't like. If they'll make this blue model in 36mm...

Hi mate, thanks for your ongoing content. Wanted to get some advice - was thinking bout the 42mm Augsburg from Laco and they offer free 1st engraving. Do you think it would be naff to put the FL23883 engraving on the side of a miyota watch? And if not, what should I go for for most accuracy? As above? Space between FL and 23883? And lower or uppercase L? Thanks for your time.

Where did you get the ceramic bezel for your 013? Been looking for one and they’re so hard to come by!

I would love to see you do a review on the Watch Gecko line of pilots watches. These are priced under 300 dollars, have a Seiko NH35 movement and sapphire glass as well. They might not have the history but they do look great and are very affordable.

Might have to pick one of these up. TGV, your reviews are bad for my savings!

The blue works best with the A dial as I think the B dial is too serious/toolish for such a beautiful sunburst blue. Laco makes great watches from top to bottom.

Thanks for the Intro. Bought one today. Aachen Blaue Stunde 42. Blau like my Submariner. Love the Blau. Great deal on eBay.
