    Excellent review! I bought this watch about a year ago, and it's one of my favorites. It's one of those watches that looks way better in person than in pics or video. It wears comfortably, including the strap which actually exceeded my expectations so much that I went back to the site a few weeks after getting the watch to order a black strap.

    I’ve been absolutely in love with this watch ever since I saw my co workers in person and tried it on. Video doesn’t do it justice, in person it’s amazing. Yes, it may be a simple design but it’s perfect. The history behind the watch and company gives it such a huge cool factor. I’ve never been more hopeful for a giveaway. 🤞Great review Teddy, thanks for getting Stowa some more recognition they deserve. Great company from what I’ve heard by owners of the watches.

    I love pilots watches, they're my favorite standard design. I like the simplicity and functionality. I have an IWC 3607 Fliegerchronograph myself.

    I have been lusting for a flieger for years... I love the throw back with a completely clean dial. Just can't bring myself to spend a cool grand on a timepiece when I drive an 07 Carolla. Great review man!

    I was in Budapest recently on a military training course and a French Major there had this watch without any complications and on a metal bracelet. Our wrists were quite similar and I tried the watch on in comparison to my automatic. It was like night and day. It was slim, sturdy and stylish. The Stowa was sophisticated but uncomplicated. I’m interested in buying one now.

  • @FirstDonkie
    @FirstDonkie 5 років тому +2

    Recently bought the 40mm hand-wound Flieger and it's gorgeous. Although being more expensive and less in its specs, I found it the way to go. The writing on the rotor is a nod to the writing that was on the closed casebacks of the WW II watches.

  • @theRumourmonger

    @vintage910 5 років тому

    Thanks for showing this on your wrist. I've been looking at the Marine classic's that they have, use basically the same case. Was worried that it wouldn't work on my 6.5 inch wrist, but that 40mm looks amazing on yours.

  • @randyallen2771
    @randyallen2771 5 років тому

    Nice to see your review of this watch although I must say I'm a bit biased as I purchased one several months ago and love it! Stowa was wonderfully responsive to deal with and had it in my hands very quickly even with some optional touches, I give their customer service top marks. To add a couple of points, the ETA 2824-2 Stowa use in this piece is the Top grade rather than the more commonly seen basic or Elabore grades and mine gives wonderful accuracy ( over the last week it ran at +1.3 sec/day using Watchcheck) . Also, the annoying script on the winding rotor is there as an homage to the original RLM specification sheet which called for that information to be engraved on the inside of the caseback, so this is Stowa's playful adaptation of the requirement. While the flieger look isn't everyone's cup of tea, this has proved a good one for a practical everyday wearer. Thanks for the review!

  • @captainjoey8239

    Love the Type A flieger!! Stowa is one of the original brands too so it’s definitely historically significant. Think stowa makes considerably nicer pieces than Laco. Archimedes makes a nice bronze flieger too but stowa is my personal favorite. This watch is on my list for sure but only is Courtney likes it lol!!!

    @miguelbarrera8052 5 років тому

    This watch is a beauty. The clean design, the blue frame on the hands and that long seconds hand is neat... and of course the history. It's a pity that in the date version, the date window replaces the 6 at the bottom. I believe it ruins the consistency of the dial. That's why the one without date looks better to me. Great watch sharing the "same" history as the IWC flieger ones but waaaay much more affordable. Danke sehr dafür, Stowa! :D
    Anyway, since I didn't win it, it'll have to stay on my dream list for years to come.
    Great content, Teddy!

    @mikejones-dx8bx 5 років тому +1

    Ted, you mention you're not a fan of all the text on the rotor. The reason it's there is because that is the standard text that all original pilot watches displayed on their backs. Granted those original watches didn't have display backs due to the need for antimagnetic protection, but I think Stowa found a good solution for this text placement.
