'best paired with a leather jacket and a touch of midlife crisis' that cracked me up. this is an excellent list. some of the included pieces really show how much time and thought went into coming up with this list. awesome job.
@@Bear-Watch Hmm, maybe it is the leather jacket more so than anything else. I am 'very familiar' with the idea of a midlife crisis and i have been close to buying a flieger on multiple occasions, but never pulled the trigger. i don't have a leather jacket. coincidence????
@@Bear-Watch Considered a few. Also some Lacos and some from a german brand (not a historical brand) that made everything in house apart from the movement and had some cool customization options. I don't actually remember the name of the brand sadly. But I think the closest i was to buying one was with a Stowa Classic 40. Somewhere in the list of 10 watches i'd buy if money were not a factor would be a black or green dial Mark XX.
@@AnCar88 That customization option somehow rings a bell. Was it something like Damasko or Archimede by any chance? I really did consider buying a Stowa Flieger Klassik Sport 43mm or a Laco Paderborn but in the end went with the Longines Spirit 40mm for its more "versatile" look as an semi-dressy everyday piece and an Oris Big Crown Propilot 45mm I got at a very good price. I will definitely make an extremely lengthy video about pilot's watches at some point. There's a lot to talk about and a lot of cool brands, some of them pretty much overlooked!
Great video again with very interesting pieces. Time to go shopping 😅
Thank you so much! Anything in particular that sparked your interest?
Variety is the spice of life. Proud and have own a few of the time piece you mentioned.
Now I'm curious. Which ones?

Truth be told, I am a huge Flieger fan and do own a vintage leather jacket 🤐

@AnCar88 Now I'm curious. Which Flieger did you have in mind?
