Fliegers...Official Thread.

I love the historical background on these german watches. Heres my Laco Dortmund 45mm manual wind with horween cordovan bund band and lume stitching.

I went on a German watch craze last year, so I'll definitely contribute:

Laco Augsburg and Laco Munster:


Hanhart Preventor9:


Guinand Flight Engineer:


Sinn EZM 3F:


The Flight Engineer and EZM 3F are more aviation tool watches, but are still classified as 'Fliegers' by the brand. Just not in the traditional design sense, I suppose.

Interesting. I don’t love the historical background but I do think their designs are purpose built.
