Laco watches

Posted on 4 September 2021 at 12:13 PM

In our blogs we often write about interesting watches, watch winders and watch boxes. Some brands really stand out in terms of experience, quality and design. A brand that knows how to distinguish itself well and has a beautiful history is the German watch brand Laco. You may have heard of this brand, but maybe you are not sure what the watches look like. That's a shame, because the brand is very interesting and offers a lot of quality at a competitive price. The real watch enthusiast knows this and probably owns a Laco watch. Nevertheless, in this blog we are going to tell you more about Laco watches. Are you interested in beautiful watches of German origin? Then read on!

For many lovers of special watches, the pilot's watch is a real collector's item. A must have in any serious watch collection. There are several watch brands that have made a name for themselves in this area over the years. As noted, a good example of a brand that has become known partly through the production of traditional pilot watches is the German brand Laco.

Laco has been around for almost a century and has been producing particularly beautiful pilot's watches since 1940. Laco is not only known as a popular pilot watch brand, but also because of the perfect quality of the watches in combination with the attractive prices. Because despite the high quality of the watches, Laco is very affordable. We can therefore say that the price/quality ratio of this brand is very good. For the real enthusiast with an interest in a watch with a story, Laco is also an interesting brand. Since the brand has been around for so long, it is a brand with history, which will certainly appeal to the enthusiast. Partly because of this fact, Laco watches rightfully become collector's items.

In addition to pilot watches, Laco also offers modern watches in the collection, with which the brand appeals to a broad target group. Moreover, Laco is able to achieve diversity within the collection by using different materials and colours. With regard to watch straps, we find, for example, watch straps made of leather, stainless steel and nato. Laco consciously opts for only high-quality materials, such as stainless steel, stainless steel PVD and hardened mineral glass, in addition to the aforementioned materials.

The Laco collection is divided into different series of watches. A beautiful series that we would like to mention is the Laco Fliegeruhren A series. This series contains retro pilot watches with a nostalgic character. There is a choice of watches with a watch strap made of leather, stainless steel or stainless steel PVD. The dials look calm and are well-arranged and therefore have a clear legibility. We see black and cream colored dials. As far as the technology is concerned, we see high-quality automatic timepieces within this series as well as beautiful extra functionalities such as luminous indicators, second hand and SuperLuminova.

In addition to the above series, the Laco collection also includes the Fliegeruhren B series. Again we find quality pilot watches with a traditional look and nostalgic approach. We see beautiful brown leather watch straps and black dials here. Within this series we see not only automatic, but also mechanical quality timepieces from Laco's own brand. Again, the watches are equipped with nice extra functionalities such as second hand, luminous indicators and SuperLuminova.

In the Laco Fliegeruhren C series we see watches with a completely different look. Although we also see dials in black, the gray nylon straps give these watches a completely different look. The dark color watch cases are made of stainless steel PVD. The whole gives these watches a robust and tough look. Also within this series, the dial stands out because of its good legibility and calm appearance.

The Laco Einzatsuhren series includes sports watches that are water resistant up to 1000 meters. The watch straps are appropriately made of rubber. Furthermore, these watches are characterized by a nice number of extra functionalities. Various models have a date display, second hand and luminous indicators, but also a screw-down crown and rotating bezel. These can therefore be called extremely complete models. In terms of appearance, these watches are sporty, tough and robust and therefore extremely suitable for the real sportsman.

Last but not least, we mention the Laco Classics series. These watches are ideal for lovers of a stylish and classic watch without bells and whistles. The designs within this series have a minimalist character, but there is a choice of different striking colors, with which a statement can certainly be made. These watches are, for example, very good to wear with a business outfit, but these watches from Laco are also very suitable when you go out casually. For the watch straps, for example, quality leather or nato has been used, which has a completely different look.

With this selection from the Laco collection, the diversity of this brand is once again apparent. Due to this variety, in combination with the quality and attractive prices, many enthusiasts will be able to indulge themselves when viewing the Laco collection. If you haven't done this yet, it's definitely worth it. With a watch from Laco you opt for excellent functionality, good affordability and high wearing comfort, as well as quality and reliability.
We have been an official dealer of Laco for over 8 years. During this period many Laco watches passed by. We are always amazed by the beautiful finish, original designs and good quality. In 8 years of sales, we have never had to return a Laco watch for repair. This is virtually unprecedented in view of the sales numbers and the period in which we sell Laco. It is precisely for these reasons that we find Laco such a nice watch brand. It offers really good quality that you can enjoy for years to come.

Affordable Ingersoll watches

Posted on 28 August 2021 at 8:38 AM

When you are looking for a good quality watch with a stylish look, there is a lot to choose from. Numerous watch brands offer quality in this field and each brand has its own identity when we look at appearance and design. Over the years, various brands have been added that know how to produce beautiful watches, but a brand with a history and a special story will continue to attract most enthusiasts. A brand that has been active in the watch industry for more than a century and can now be called world famous is the American brand Ingersoll. Ingersoll was founded by the Ingersoll brothers. They wanted to market watches of good quality at a reasonable price. In 1892 they bet on an automated production line with which they put a watch on the market for the price of 1 dollar. This so-called 'dollar watch' made Ingersoll very well known.

Over the years, Ingersoll watches have become very popular and famous. The brand managed to collaborate with well-known names such as Henry Ford and Disney, which allowed them to put themselves even more on the map. To this day, Ingersoll is known for its affordable watches, which in terms of quality are certainly not inferior to the more expensive variants. Ingersoll uses automatic movements, where the craft of the watchmaker comes into its own. Another strong point of Ingersoll is that the brand has included various designs in the collection, which means that the brand is able to appeal to a wide audience. Ingersoll's designs range from a more traditional and classic look to a more sporty and tough look. The ladies have also been thought of, because in addition to an extensive men's collection, Ingersoll also offers various beautiful and elegant models for the ladies.

In this article we will discuss some Ingersoll watches starting with the Ingersoll IN3900 SL Apache. This watch has a somewhat classic design and a stylish appearance. The combination of the black leather strap with the steel case provides a touch of nostalgia. On the white dial we see a number of blue accents, which gives a playful effect. This watch is of course equipped with a reliable automatic movement, in which no less than 20 precious stones are processed. The watch has several nice extra functionalities, such as a date display, second hand, luminous indicators and a nice chronograph function. In short, a watch with a luxurious appearance and striking technology at an attractive price.

The next watch we take a closer look at is the Ingersoll IN3105 BBKO Chinook. This watch has a completely different look and feel than the aforementioned watch, because it has a more sturdy and robust appearance. The combination of the dark brown leather strap, black dial and yellow accents makes this watch a creative and original piece. The striking yellow color that contrasts with the black dial makes this watch very easy to read. This watch is also equipped with a quality automatic movement. The watch case is made of stainless steel PVD and hardened mineral glass has also been used. This watch is water resistant to 50 meters and closes with a buckle. The watch also has a seconds hand.

The third watch we mention is the Ingersoll IN1816 BK Arkansas. This particularly beautiful men's watch has a more classic approach. The watch strap is made of black leather and the dial is black in color. The case is made of stainless steel. Furthermore, this watch also has an automatic movement, which forms a solid basis. This contains 21 gemstones. This watch has a nice list of extra functionalities. This watch offers a glass bottom, so you can see your watch at work. The real enthusiast will certainly appreciate that. Furthermore, the watch has a date display, second hand, luminous indicators, a chronograph function and, as icing on the cake, a screw-down crown. In other words, this is a watch that has everything a true enthusiast could wish for.

The last watch we want to highlight is a ladies watch. It concerns the Ingersoll IN 7210 PU Tulalip. If you, as a woman, like to wear a striking watch on your wrist that attracts all eyes, then this is really something for you. With the striking purple color, the embossed leather strap and the creative dial, this is a real eye-catcher. Of course, this watch is also equipped with an automatic movement, which you have a nice view of through the glass bottom.

Furthermore, with this watch you have access to luminous indicators and a second hand.
We now offer the above models, but also various other Ingersoll watches, with a nice discount. So grab your chance now to purchase a quality watch with a unique appearance at an extra competitive price!

Van Speyk Dutch Diver watches

Posted on 21 August 2021 at 11:14 AM

The high quality of Swiss and German watches is well known. But our own little country also offers watches of sublime quality. The Dutch brand Van Speyk offers reliable and solid watches, which are also stylish and elegant. This watch brand also offers an extremely good price/quality ratio, because Van Speyk watches are affordable.

Van Speyk is a still young watch brand and originated from a collaboration of entrepreneurs who could not find exactly what they were looking for at the existing watch brands. The name of this special Dutch brand refers to the Dutch hero Lieutenant Jan Carel Josephus van Speyk. As a seafarer, Van Speyk was nicknamed 'terror of the robbers' at the time. When he has to investigate shiploads in Antwerp, it is ambushed by Belgian insurgents. To prevent the ship from falling into their hands, he blew up the ship and was killed. With this, a national hero is born. In short, with a Van Speyk watch you immediately have an impressive piece of history to tell about when you receive a compliment about your watch. This is therefore a nice brand for an enthusiast with a preference for a brand with a history. The brand also stands for the Dutch identity and a piece of Dutch pride.

The Van Speyk collection offers high-quality watches that are made in the Netherlands. Within the collection, Van Speyk offers a wide diversity in terms of application, but certainly also in terms of appearance. We see particularly beautiful pilot watches, special Vitesse watches and very high-quality diving watches. In the latter group we are talking about the Van Speyk Dutch Diver watches, this watch series was introduced by Van Speyk in 2015. A good diving watch must of course meet various conditions. This goes a lot further than just having to be waterproof, although that is of course an important condition. In addition, a good diving watch must be sturdy and robust and can take a beating. Furthermore, a screw-down crown and a dial that can be read even in poor visibility are invaluable. The Dutch Diver watches from Van Speyk meet these conditions, so it is not for nothing that they fall under the diving watches with very good specifications.

Van Speyk Dutch Diver Black watch

The Dutch Diver watches from Van Speyk are absolutely very complete and also very attractive from an aesthetic point of view. After all, the eye also wants something. The watch straps of the Dutch Diver watches are made of stainless steel, which gives the watches a tough and robust appearance. In addition, extremely strong sapphire glass is used that is highly resistant to scratches or other damage. In addition, the watches are water resistant up to 200 meters. Different watches have been chosen with the dial and bezel in various colors. Colors such as blue, green and brown are examples of this. The Dutch Diver watches are equipped with an automatic movement of the brand Miyota (Citizen), which means that you are guaranteed to have a solid base for your watch. An automatic timepiece will also be preferred by many enthusiasts, since the old craft of the watchmaker is most prominent here. The watch case of the Dutch Diver watches is 12 mm thick and has a diameter of 42 mm.

Furthermore, the Dutch Diver watches offer beautiful extra functionalities with an absolute added value. Not only do they feature a seconds hand, date display and luminescent indicators, they also offer a rotating bezel and screw-down crown. With a watch from this series you are therefore assured of a diving watch with a very good water resistance, which can also be consulted in the dark. This complete picture offers a quality watch for the real sports enthusiast, which at the same time also fits very well with another outfit, such as a business outfit. You choose a diving watch with all the trimmings with a Dutch Diver watch from Van Speyk, without having to pay the main price. Highly recommended for every diving and/or snorkelling enthusiast!
