Re: Stowa Flieger Review
I recommended steinhart to a friend who used to wear an IWC and he was over the moon with his watch. Couldn't understand the price differences involved and actually got rid if the iwc and kept the steinhart. Spend the balance on a holiday!
Re: Stowa Flieger Review
Yeah between the Miyota Lacos and the Steinharts I'd go for the Steinhart as well. The ETA Lacos are even more expensive than the Stowas.ArmyMedicDad wrote:I've been shopping for a B-Uhr for the last month or so. While Stowa seems nice, their price is more than I want to spend. Plus, as of right now, neither the Stowa A or B model is available until April or July (depends on which version of ETA 2824-2 you want to order).
So I started looking at the Laco and Steinhart. While Laco holds the historical edge, I've decided on the Steinhart. Just waiting for them to get into their new building (orders should be ready to go by Monday).

So this isn't an authentic flieger?highway62 wrote:The stowa is too small to have the authentic flieger feel.
You jest, Sir!
(OK it's not a recreation of a WWI converted pocket watch, but that's like saying a 1950s Squale isn't a proper diver because it doesn't look like a Sub!)

Well I'd say that an authentic flieger wouldn't have a date function but that's just me.Drmarkf wrote:So this isn't an authentic flieger?highway62 wrote:The stowa is too small to have the authentic flieger feel.
