    Weight of 42mm Laco Pilot Type A ETA automatic?

    I just received a new ETA automatic "Munster" (861748) today from a Bay seller in Stuttgart. It made it to Los Angeles in four business days! I zipped open the case and was blown away. The thing is gorgeous and exceeded my expectations.

    One thing I didn't expect was the weight. I was hoping that it would be lighter than my 150 gram Omega SMP "wrist anvil," but now I'm not sure. Maybe my new flieger actually weighs more?

    Has anyone found information on the weight in grams of the various Laco pilot models? I did try to search first...

    I can't provide the number you're looking for, but personally I'd be put off by a lightweight B-Uhr; it is a tool watch after all.

    I'm reminded of a line from the film The 13th Warrior. After being handed a Viking sword, the main character complains, "I cannot lift this." The Viking who had given him the sword laughs, and then simply replies, "grow stronger."
