Stowa offers great quality for the price...great value. This was my 1st mechanical watch.
Love it too...the look and wearing it
Glad you found a happy piece!
which is great - as mentioned in another post really been thinking about their bronze flieger in 36 or 40. I think I can do both but I had a flieger many years ago and I do remember they wear quite large due to being almost all dial and therefore the dilemma.
This is a 40mm Klassik hardwound. It's a LE but same dimwnsions as their 40mm Klassik in their current catalog. It wears really well on my wrist...sweet spot for me. I have also have their 41mm bronze fleiger with a 6497 Unitas...is was a LE too ...1 of 15. It's same dimensions as their Bronze Flieger 6498 which i think is still available. It wears much larger than the 40mm because it is thicker mainly. But I love their Fliegers.
Thanks for sharing! Where did you get to see this one?
