Laco Memmingen June 21, 2017
Reviewer: Richard Bonzani from Mokena, IL United States  
Great watch. Prefer this A-dial over the B, very easy to read. Gets noticed a lot. True to the original style. ETA movement, sapphire crystal with a slight dome. Very nicely done.

Classic Style, Great Watch January 30, 2017
Reviewer: Liam V. from san francisco, CA United States  
I knew I wanted a Pilot style watch as the cleanliness of the design fit well with my aesthetic sense, and the big uncluttered dial fit well with my rapidly failing eyesight.  I looked around at probably 10 different brands of varying expense, in winding, automatic and quartz.  The Memmingen won out purely by the power of its design -- no other watch managed to combine the chunky utility of the Pilot dial with the elegant manufacture of a fine timepiece.  The shape and quality of the numbers, the thin frame of blued steel around the bright luminova on the hands, the graceful arc of the crystal and the assured thickness of the band.
