The Laco Aachen Grau 39 presents the historic Type B German navigator-watch layout in a softer, more contemporary grey color. Its distinctive dial places minutes on the outer track and hours on the inner circle, preserving the excellent readability and unmistakable character of a traditional flieger watch.
Thermally blued hands provide a refined contrast against the grey dial, while Super-LumiNova BGW9 on the hands, numerals, and markings supports visibility in reduced light. The matching grey riveted leather strap completes the restrained monochromatic design.
We chose the Aachen Grau 39 for someone who appreciates authentic pilot-watch design but prefers something less stark than the traditional black dial. Its 39 mm case is comfortable for everyday wear, while the thermally blued hands and Type B layout preserve its unmistakable aviation character.
