...for limited editions! This is starting to be a bad habit, but couldn't resist this one when I saw it in person so now have in on reserve. Pictures dont do it justice! Here's info about the watch...

100 is very limited

Only a few left I think. Here's a better shot of the blued indices. You have to find the right angle to really see the blue but once it locks in it really pops.

Not everyday you see a white dialed flieger. Laco is a fine brand that deserves more recognition, good pick!

Not yet...I got to try on the pre market version at the Topper store in Burlingame CA. Release is scheduled for sometime in February.

I dont have a lume shot, but this is from the worn and wound article...hope it helps...

"The dial is very sharp and without any major clutter,and the contrast between the blue/black elements and the white base is on-point. There’s also ample lume here, rendered in BG-W9, for nighttime visibility. The application is also slightly three-dimensional, which gives the whole thing some added depth"

Worn and Wound did a Podcast with Rob at Toppers in CA about the watch. It goes into detail about some of the issues they had with R&D and getting the blued indices right. Worth a listen....
