The Laco Würzburg 42.5 mm Special Models is a high-end pilot’s watch that represents the purest expression of historic Flieger timepieces, combining an instrumental Type B design with a large-format mechanical movement finished to the highest standards.
This model is designed for collectors and discerning enthusiasts seeking an authentic pilot watch with historically faithful aesthetics and a beautifully finished movement on display.
Inside, it features a hand-wound Laco 98 movement, based on the legendary ETA 6498.2 in Top grade, decorated with Côtes de Genève bridges, thermally blued screws, sunray-finished ratchet and crown wheels, and a ratchet wheel engraved with the Laco logo. This caliber follows a traditional execution without a stop-seconds function.
The case is crafted from stainless steel with polished and sandblasted finishes, achieving a perfect balance between elegance and instrumental character. It is fitted with an anti-reflective sapphire crystal and a screw-down case back with an extra-large sapphire display window, offering an impressive view of the large mechanical movement.
The matte black dial follows the original navigator watch execution with a Type B layout, featuring Arabic numerals and indexes filled with Super-LumiNova C3, along with a small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock, ensuring precise and clear legibility even in low-light conditions.
All hands are thermally blued and filled with Super-LumiNova C3, providing excellent visibility and elegant contrast against the dial.
The watch is completed with a brown leather strap fitted with a stainless steel buckle, enhancing its classic appearance while ensuring comfort and security on the wrist.
With its 42.5 mm diameter and balanced proportions, the Laco Würzburg Special Models delivers a bold and authentic wrist presence, ideal for those who appreciate large-format Flieger watches with refined mechanical execution.
