The hand made "Erbstück" watch is a one of a kind. Traces of ageing give these timepieces a historic charm that usually can only be found at vintage models.Laco has developed a unique method to achieve this special look, creating a natural patina on the watches. Scrapes, scratches, discolouration and wear and tear can be reproduced to appear as they do on old originals. All components – case, dial, hands and strap – are aged individually and by hand in a labor-intensive process. This creates a particularly authentic patina, making each watch truly one of a kind. This gives the watches the appeal of an historic timepiece, making each one completely unique - as individual and distinctive as its owner!Movement:Laco 97 - Based on the venerable Swiss ETA 6497.1, our modified version of the handwinding movement features a hacking second hand, Incabloc shock protection, swan neck fine adjustment, and an engraved serial number.Case:Our exclusive media blasted stainless steel case with its dark finish and engraved FL23883 ordnance number is a signature component of the REPLIKA watch. It features a double domed sapphire crystal on the front, and a solid case back that has been laser engraved on the inside to replicate original details, and engraved on the outside with the watch’s serial number.The impressive case includes antimagnetic protection, and a water resistance of 5 ATM.Dimensions: 55 mm diameter; 19,5 mm overall height; and 26 mm lug width.Dial:Designed to exactly replicate the dial of the original Model B observation watch, the dial is finished with a matt black background and Superluminova C3 indices.Hands:The hands represent yet another design highlight of the REPLIKA. The hour and minute hands are made of thermally blued steel, and both the minute and second hands are distinguished bya curved tip to aid in accurate time reading.Strap:Unique to these aviation watches, and a critical element of our homage design, the REPLIKA is fitted with a riveted brown calf leather strap constructed in the same closed-loop style of the original.Box:Watch box incl. cardboard box
