I ordered another Laco..

[Oceanklassik]

Hmmm...for me, I'd say its ideal if both Type A & B are same size, then they'd look like the twins as they were meant to be, and manual winding as the original.
If cost was not a concern, 45mm certainly.

Hehe, why Bro Ocean? Getting Laco poisoned too?

I always like a pilot watch and ever since I sold off my IWC, I hope to buy another which I can afford better. I still don't know if Laco is the right choice for me though

I dun think Laco got 45mm auto unless limited edition?? correct me if i am wrong. :-)

You may be right because I'm not too sure. It seems there are quite a few variations.

Type A 42mm, clean dial and big enough liao for you. Manual or auto...I would say consider what you have in your collection. I had more manuals than autos hence I went for an auto.

Tx for the pointers

Ok guys, need your expert advice.

Which is a better option for a LACO watch :

(a) Type A 45mm manual
(b) Type A 45mm auto (eta)
(c) Type A 42mm manual
(d) Type A 42mm auto (eta)
(e) All (a) - (d) in Type B

ahhh ... i see .. .. kam-sia-kam-sia

[feilong108]

heheh...A dial i like...so have to be 45mm...B dial Wife like..so have to be 42m...simple...hehehehe....

WW2 German pilots dun have the choice to choose...all Manual Winding....More historically correct in the sense...

[Oceanklassik]

Depend on wrist size...for me i gun for the type A and B...A dial in 45mm and B dial in 42mm...

Both Handwind pls...hehehe....

Personally view...

On the contrary, if I were to get both the A & B, I will choose A dial in 42mm and B dial in 45mm. This is because the B dial looks clustered and justifies a bigger 'face', so it should look nicer. A personal preference.

But why manual winding over the other movements?

Actually if you ask me, I think the type B 42mm is the most accurate scaled down of the WW2 laco b-uhr.

The dial fonts, hands are exactly same as the WUS Laco LE done by all those ang moh forumers. Which are done by them based on the original WW2 B-Uhr. IMO, I would prefer the manual winding..
