⭕ On offer is this superb all original WW ll Luftwaffe observers watch by LACO, (Lacher and Co), Pforzheim, one of the five accredited manufacturers of this particular type of airmans watch.Many thousands of these watches were made before the conflict ended and bearing in mind the number of Luftwaffe aircraft lost in all theatres the fact that there are only a few around now is self-explanatory.
These watches were not the personal property of the airmen. They had to be drawn from the stores before each flight, and returned at its end, assuming of course the aircraft returned to its base.
