Yes, but they are worth the money! They are gens because Laco was one of the Big-5 producing Pilots for German Luftwaffe, like IWC, Lange, Stowa and Wempe!

Be careful what you order: the "normal" 45mm (Saarbrücken or Westerland) have a "wrong" crown. Only the "Mini Replika" has the correct form of crown and the better strap. But this version has a crystal case bottom, which is complete wrong. The original Beobachteruhren have a metal case bottom - like Lacos "Saarbrücken" or "Westerland". A great pity! So order a "Mini Replika" with additional metal case bottom if you like a very accurate gen 45mm Beobachteruhr. Laco is flexible, they can deliver.

How about Friedrichshafen Typ B?

Wow that info is priceless buddy, thnx.

True. But I have no interest taking this one anywhere near the water.

Man I am kinda water boy

Love'em!

You may want to look at Steinhart as well. I picked this beauty up last Autumn. Limited Gold Edition.

I like the look of Steinhart. But there is one problem, it is not water proof...

Take a Laco, they have them up to 45mm (or even 55mm if you take the official Replika!).

I guess I have to wait and save some extra money to get it

Get a gen one with proper ETA, not IWC but real pilot (they were making real pilot watches since the thirties):

The only problem with Stowa is that they only come 40 mm

I also am looking for a Observer's Type B 8-)

Yeah, the watch being waterproof (even for a flieger) is a need for me as well.

Great photos man!

Very much impressive. As a newbie in the forum, my first search was on "b-uhr type b" watches. Came across you folks' posts and I must say these watches are beautiful and hust the way I l like them. I am looking for a good one (no replica though) with my limited budget these days. Nice 2 meet u folks, Cheers

Wow unbelievable! I wish I saw this earlier. Any ideas where else I can find such a genuine type b dial b-uhr?
