Laco Augsburg Blau Stunde Watch

Wear a piece of aviation history on your wrist with the Laco Augsburg Blue Watch. Manufactured in Pforzheim, Germany, this timepiece belongs to Laco's "Pilot Watch Basic" line, maintaining the high-quality standards that made the brand famous during the 20th century. Its name, "Blaue Stunde" (the Blue Hour), refers to that magical twilight moment when the sky takes on a deep blue hue—masterfully reflected in its sunburst-finished dial.

The dial design follows the Type A (Baumuster A) pattern, prioritizing legibility with large Arabic numerals and the iconic aviation triangle at the 12 o'clock position. Both the indices and hands are treated with Superluminova C3, ensuring perfect visibility in low-light conditions or during night flights. Its sandblasted stainless steel case provides a technical, professional look while preventing unnecessary reflections in the cockpit.

Equipped with the Laco 21 automatic movement (based on the reliable Miyota 821A), this watch offers a 42-hour power reserve and a hacking second feature. The intricate mechanical movement can be admired through the sapphire crystal case back. It comes paired with a durable and comfortable grey nylon military-style strap.
