Laco watch winder direction and settings
Laco is a German watch company that has been producing high-quality timepieces since 1925. Over the years, Laco watches have gained a reputation for their precision, durability, and timeless design.
One of the most interesting things about Laco watches is their history. During World War II, the German Air Force commissioned Laco to produce watches for their pilots. These watches had to be extremely accurate and durable, as they were used in extreme conditions at high altitudes. Today, Laco continues to produce pilot's watches that are based on these original designs.
Laco offers a range of different watch styles, including dress watches, sport watches, and pilot's watches. Each style has its own unique features and design elements, but all Laco watches share the same commitment to quality.
One of the things that sets Laco watches apart from other brands is their attention to detail. Laco watches are meticulously crafted using only the finest materials, including high-grade stainless steel, sapphire crystal, and top-quality leather straps. The movements inside Laco watches are also carefully selected and tested to ensure accuracy and reliability.
Another key feature of Laco watches is their classic and understated design. Laco watches are not flashy or overly ornate; instead, they rely on clean lines, simple dials, and elegant details to create a timeless aesthetic. This makes Laco watches suitable for a wide range of occasions, from casual wear to formal events.
Overall, Laco is a brand that combines heritage, craftsmanship, and style to create watches that are both reliable and beautiful. Whether you're a fan of pilot's watches, dress watches, or sport watches, there's sure to be a Laco watch that suits your taste and needs.
Most Laco watch self-winding movements can be wound properly by most watch winder boxes. Usually Laco’s self-winding movements need to rotate 650 - 800 revolutions per day, and most of them can be wound clockwise. So please take some time and like to choose a cute clockwork that suits you and your watch.

If you could not find your watch model (or caliber) in this table, you may determine your Laco. winding mode on a trial basis. You should select the combined winding mode (CW+CCW) and the minimal number of turns per day (TPD). Then place your watch into the watch winder and check after a few days how accurate your watch shows the time. If it runs behind, it is necessary to increase the number of TPD by one step.
