KIEL SPORT
The dynamics of time
The new Kiel Sport enriches the characteristic DNA of our pilot chronographs with a sporty accent. Unlike the classic Kiel models, the Kiel Sport features a unidirectional rotating bezel. Nevertheless, with its distinctively striking design and high functionality, the Kiel Sport reflects the connection between Laco and aviation that has lasted for more than 80 years.
Reliable, functional, striking.
Crafted in our manufacture by experienced watchmakers, the Kiel Sport combines dynamic elegance with functional sophistication. With its 43 mm case, the Laco 500 chronograph movement, and a particularly striking design, it excels both in daily wear and during outdoor activities. It captivates not only pilots but also anyone who appreciates the extraordinary.
The authentic pilot watch aesthetic is unmistakably displayed on the dial, deliberately kept in matte black to avoid reflections and ensure quick, glare-free readability from every angle.
High-quality stainless steel – sandblasted
The case, tested to 10 atm pressure, with a diameter of 43 millimeters, is made of high-quality dark stainless steel and has a strikingly matte finish due to sandblasting. This type of surface finishing not only gives a monochrome appearance but also increases the resistance of the striking case against mechanical stress and abrasion. On the back, a screwed see-through back allows a view of the precision craftsmanship of the automatic movement.
Rotating bezel with 60-clicks
The bezel of the Kiel Sport stands out for its particularly grippy design, allowing effortless operation even when wearing gloves. With its unidirectional rotation and precise 60-click mechanism, it serves not only as a sporty design element but also as a technical feature. For exceptional functionality and unmatched durability, the insert is made of high-quality ceramic, offering numerous advantages including exceptional hardness and scratch resistance, color stability, and corrosion resistance.
A tribute to the finest mechanics
Inside, elegantly hidden behind a screwed see-through back, the automatic chronograph caliber Laco 500 performs its reliable work. The movement is based on the renowned Swiss caliber Sellita SW500 in the Elaboré quality level. In addition to the classic chronograph functions, it also displays the day of the week and the date. A full winding of the Laco 500 ensures an impressive power reserve of 56 hours. Optionally, this movement is also available in the higher Top quality level.
Optimally readable – by day and by night
The numbers, the hands in the classic Losangé shape, and the scale of the rotating bezel of the Kiel Sport are coated with Superluminova C3, an impressively bright luminous substance. The striking contrast between the matte black dial and the bright numbers and indices ensures outstanding readability both in daylight and in darkness – an essential criterion for precise timekeeping. Superluminova C3 gives the Kiel Sport an impressive luminosity and ensures a fascinatingly radiant appearance in the dark.
Highest wearing comfort – aesthetic and timeless
The Kiel Sport combines authentic pilot watch aesthetics with high-quality material selection, including the timeless black calf leather strap with bright contrast stitching. The soft leather offers comfortable wear and harmoniously emphasizes the sporty elegance of the watch. A dark sandblasted buckle that picks up the matte finish of the case secures the strap. This small detail also emphasizes the high standard of aesthetics and quality that runs through the entire design of the watch.
