Flieger Watch Brand Suggestions

Requirements : I would like a Flieger type a and b ideally they are from real German brands that made them in the Second World War and still make them to a great deal of matching the watches they made in that time. (Can be two different brands and they need to be major players when they were first issued)

Laco. I say Laco, Laco, Laco. You’ll get a genuine provider of WWII flieger watches and a great value at the same time.

Happy hunting!

Yeah kinda what I was leaning towards for a type B probably

Laco, specifically one from the original line. Such as the Dortmund or Leipzig

As other posters said and I'll echo, go for Laco. They're one of the original 5 makers of the flieger type watch and their products range from very competitive (for German-made watches) to very good solid mid-tier brand quality (and priced accordingly, just so you know).

More obscure brands: Alpina Just like IWC they made watches for the Germans

I personally think Laco, Hanhart and Bulova had the best WW2 pilot watches.

I like almost all watches, but I think sterile Fliegers are boring. No wonder Germany lost the War.
