LACO Flieger on "A" dial on original Laco closed-loop strap in reddish brown. This baby is 55mm across and 20mm tall. I can use it on my chest as a clock

. More on New Arrivals.

Wrist shot. My wrist is exactly 55mm across the top and the watch just covers it exactly. The lug horns make it appear bigger and so does the camera angle.

And of course, the lume shot. I had to wait for evening to do this. Lume maximized with a Surefire torch for about 30 seconds.

My initial impressions: 1) big, as I like them 2) a little too light on the wrist 3) closed-loop strap adds authenticity to the entire rig 4) major wrist presence as i got a few looks of disbelief at the mall when I showed it off

5) lots of happiness and joy owning this one. For sure, this won't be my last Laco Flieger. After a few days of wearing it and I find out I don't snagged at elevator doors etc, I might take down the "B" dial, too.

Hope you like this clock

.
Congrats Jeff!...your wrist shot reminds me why I sold my 55mm Glycine F-104.

Congrats on your new Laco arrival Jeff!!!

Love that classic "A-Dial" styling...wow, really clean dial and that closed loop style strap really adds to that cool, vintage feel.

Wowzer...55 mm across and 20 mm thick (what's the lug-to-lug on this brute?)...go big or go home for sure...I can tell you that I could not quite pull that off, girlie man that I am!!!
