Laco continues the success story of their Taupe timepieces
Last year, the Laco Augsburg Taupe and Aachen Taupe sparked enthusiasm in the world of watches. With their subtle colour scheme, the two timepieces lend a completely new and surprisingly elegant look to the classic pilot watch aesthetic of the company. Due to the great demand, we now offer two more limited models in the mechanical entry level segment. With the smaller diameter of 39 millimeters each, the new Augsburg Taupe and Aachen Taupe have a no less impressive appearance than their predecessors. With the new size, Laco is following the trend towards lighter-looking housings and responding to the request of many fans who explicitly requested a smaller format.
One off 200
The new edition of our popular classics is strictly limited. All serial numbers are engraved on the case back - exclusivity you can see.
Both models can be ordered online in a strict limitation of 200 copies each. Delivery is scheduled for mid August 2020.
Augsburg Taupe 39
Elegant & timeless - our Augsburg Taupe is a real eye-catcher. This model follows the typical “Baumuster A” dial of the observation watches from the 1940s and ensures perfect readability with hour, minute and central second.
Aachen Taupe 39
The slightly more sporty version. The historical “Baumuster B” type with external minute hand, inner hour circle and central second hand captivates with a functional and timeless dial and makes this model a reliable yet fashionable companion.
NEW MOVEMENT WITH STOP-SECOND FUNCTION
The 39 mm stainless-steel case with the bold and easy-grip crown features the robust aesthetics of the classic Laco pilot watch. At the heart of the timepiece is the automatic calibre Laco 21, based on the Miyota 821A, which is revealed through the sapphire crystal case back. This movement is newly equipped with a stop-seconds function, which allows time to be set precisely. The limitation number of each model is engraved on the case back.
Superluminova C1 Blue Line
The use of glowing Superluminova C1 Blue Line coating, with an expressive luminescent bluish hue, ensures perfect readability at night and in poor light conditions. Apart from that, the two dials reflect the typical instrument look of the company’s pilot watches, which are designed for intuitive readability.
