    This was acutually a limited edition of 200pic released several years ago.
    If Laco still have the same case(=35mm) in stock, that would be the best match for Durowe 7425.

    Personally, I would like to have a watch like this in mat black dial with golden index.

    Hi,

    Newbie to the site -- signed up when I saw a dedicated Laco forum here. Particularly interested in Laco and other German watches -- am also a happy owner of a Laco 42mm with Type B dial. I'd put my vote on a military-type, 45mm, and quite keen to see Janne's suggested artillery / sextant dial adopted for the project. Do we have any visibility on the costs at this time?

    Apologies for having just jumped right in -- just wanted to express my interest in this project.

    Cheers

    I wonder if Laco can do all of it in the Laco script?

    After reading through 100 plus postings I get the distinct feeling that the marine variant of this watch will not be the design selected or am I looking too far into the future?

    I do not know. Some exiting dials` were made for use by different Navy units.

    In my opinion, the sextant dial seems like the most interesting choice that was presented so far. It would look great on an existing B-uhr case. Other marine dials are unique as well, but I think there is too much going on with them. You'd have to make several omissions to make it readable on a wristwatch.
