Laco’s pilot watches are some of the best in the industry, and now they’ve released a new chronograph that’s worth a look. The Kiel.2 marks a new chapter in chronograph timers for the brand, which has slowly phased out the previous generation of them over the past couple of years. The Kiel.2 looks more traditional than their previous chronographs and benefits from classic pilot watch styling cues. It’s so crisp and evocative that it could very well be mistaken for a much pricier IWC Pilot Chronograph with the layout and that iconic onion crown. Equal parts pilot watch and chronograph, the 43mm Kiel.2 looks properly classic and sporty. Your choice of Black (Schwarz) and White (Weiss) dials gets mated with triple registers, a Sellita SW 500 25-jewel automatic chronograph movement, day/date window, double domed AR sapphire glass, sapphire display back, thermical blue steel hands, and plenty of lume for low light legibility. The Kiel.2 comes with a riveted black leather strap.
