I was looking around for a nice Pilot Chrono and I fell in love with the Laco Pilot Chrono. The simple clean black dial, 7750 movement, size of case, and tool-like & military appearance did it for me. So on New Year's eve I placed an order with a 3T sponsor here. Dealing with IslandWatch was a sheer pleasure, and Marc answered all my questions about the watch promptly. Kudos & 3 cheers to IW!!! This beauty will be my 1st watch for 2012 and being my 1st Laco, I am so excited for the delivery. And so the waiting begins... ![]() Last edited on Sun Jan 1st, 2012 09:32 pm by SOARER |

![]() Just kidding and below is my mini review, please bear with the amateur photos. This watch is way set to be one of my best watches so far! Being my first Pilot watch, I was in awe as I opened the box. The solid chunky case, with the clean looking dial, signed crown, and last but not least the thick leather riveted aviator strap was with upmost quality and feel. It felt right on my small wrist, very well-balanced. It was not too heavy nor too light. There is something about this watch that felt so right on my wrist. The nicely shaped 22mm lugs, and engraved solid caseback was very comfortable. The 15mm thick case stands out nicely on my wrist. To some, this may seem like a hugh watch though. But I just love the size & heft! The polished and brushed 44mm steel case, thick slightly domed sapphire glass combo was very stunning. The exhibition case back shows the venerable 7750 movement with the beautiful signed rotor. I had always thought that Pilot watches must be of certain size and heft, and this watch fits the bill right for me. Overall, I am very pleased with this Pilot Chrono, and this being my first Auto Chrono, I am totally blown away! And now to the photos: Attachment: 1.JPG (Downloaded 135 times)
