Laco Dresden Owner Review : Precise, professional and elegant

A surprising watch, the Laco by Lacher (LACO = LAcher & CO). Ø36, ETA manual movement. It is a "pilot / flieger / B-uhr / Type B" watch, which I chose to accompany me on my bike. Except that the Type B dial & small Ø do not go well together for an intuitive & syncretic reading of the time. Despite the extreme readability of the dial & its thick indexes every 5 minutes, the whole is loaded and often overlaps (the hour hand partially covers the hour numbers) making reading sometimes difficult. I understood that this tool was mainly developed for pilots & assistant pilots whose flights did not exceed one hour of flight, hence the great precision over 60 minutes and the compromise on reading the hours (To be confirmed). And therefore ineffective for use on a bike, casting error, but very typical & interesting watch in a watch box. It ticks boxes that the others do not. Mainly on leather for an austerity that suits it well.
