Laco Pilot Watch Review - Watchgang Platinum hey guys this is andrew with my watch addiction calm and today we're gonna take a look
at that watch gang Platinum subscription watch that I received for March 2018 in
case you guys missed my watch gang platinum subscription unboxing video I
ended up receiving a laco watches Ju 52 automatic pilot watch and that's why
we're gonna take a look at today before we get started though guys let's take a
look and see what's on my wrist the watch of the day is a Swiss military
Neptune now you guys might have seen my review on the navy blue version of this
one I actually decided I'd like that one so much I went out and traded for the
black and white version with this silicone strap incidentally if anybody
out there has the black and red version of this Swiss military Neptune please
hit me up that is a color combination I would like to trade for okay so if you
did not see the unboxing of this laco Ju - 52 that I received from watchgang
platinum subscription this guy does come in a zippered leather travel case open
it up here real quick and in here we have the laco ju 52 manual as well as
warranty cards that is not why we're here
I can get this watch out of the case I haven't played around with this one worn
this too much I did it a little bit just to kind of get the feel for it but as
you can see this lock o is a little bit different with that
crown at that 4:30 position I mentioned in my unboxing that this dial design
reminds me a lot of the Santo watches that I received from watchgang in the
past it's got a lot of the same design qualities to it black PVD coated
stainless steel case with a sapphire crystal this guy is 42 millimeters in
diameter with a twelve point eight millimeter case thickness and the canvas
straps on these are 22 millimeters wide at the lug this lock oju 52 is an
automatic watch it's powered by the laco 18 movement which is a rebranded miyota
8218 now for those of you are unfamiliar the video - 80 - 18 has a
accuracy rating of negative 10 seconds to positive 20 seconds per day I did see
in my comments and the inboxing of this one of the viewers received a spirit of
st. Louis and was not happy with the accuracy on this on his watch anyway so
I decided to throw mine on an app just to see how it was and mine was averaging
this watch right here was averaging about 8 seconds fast per day give or
take the one thing I will say that I noticed with this watch when I was
trying to check the accuracy on this think I messed up my settings a little
bit and what I mean by that is one thing Laco Pilot Watch Review - Watchgang Platinum I've noticed is when you're winding this
watch the second hand will actually stop for a couple of seconds while you're
winding that's personally something that I've never seen before
maybe it's probably just because I've never actually paid attention to it on
my other watches like I have on this one because I was hypersensitive to the
accuracy comments on this one but I did notice as you wind it you can see the
second hand actually stopped while that main Springs winding and I don't know in
general if if watches and I just haven't paid attention to it
or if that's something specific to this Miyota 8218 movement but that definitely
affected my accuracy calculation on it I had to go back and actually redo it
because of that because the first time first time I actually did it it came
back that I was like two minutes slow per day and I didn't think that was the
case in now I knew why now there's a couple of things that I like about this
watching a couple of things that I dislike about this watch I do like that
silver canvas strap and I do like it with that PVD stainless steel case
coating the one thing I dislike about this strap though and you know everybody
is going to have different opinions on this but I'm not a huge fan of those in
place catches like that especially being a stainless steel material like they are
and what I mean by that is twofold when I have this watch on my wrist I
have a big size small wrist I have a good portion of the end of the watch
strap that hangs out and I like being able to move that catch right to the end
of the watch strap so I'm not catching it on anything the other thing that I
dislike about this is because I typically work on a Mac all day or on a
laptop all day I don't like that these are metal or metallic in any way because
what I've noticed is if I'm wearing this watch without a without a dress shirt on
for instance if I'm wearing it with a t-shirt I'm scratching the hell out of
both my laptop as well as the watch I'm just constantly catching it on the wrist
guard or the wrist rest for my laptop so those are just two things that I dislike
about it I do think that crown at the 4:30 position is pretty interesting and
pretty neat I can't wait to see the loom on this watch I'll post up in the end so
you guys can see it as well I have a feeling it's gonna be pretty decent but
other than that let's take a look and see what these watches are going for
or on the open market right now so if we take a look at the partner card that
this watchgang Platinum subscription lock okay min we can see right on the
back there is that web address content watch gang .com slash there 0p k9b if we
jump actually jump over to that website and see what information we can find out
we can see these are the watches that were released for March 2018 as a part
of the watch gang platinum tier watches and it looks like this month they sent
out three different laka watches the laco bell x-1 the laco ju 52 and
then the laco spirit of st. Louis now incidentally that lock o spirit of st.
Louis is the one that commenter in a previous video mentioned that he had
that he was having accuracy issues with can't comment one way or another on it
other than just you know every watch is a little bit different and then they
also sent out this Melbourne Sorrento now I've seen these Melbourne's around
and that's definitely a watch that I would have been interested in getting in
it's even more confusing given the fact that again you guys hear me say it all
the time my preferences are set to stainless steel bracelets and that seems
to fit the bill perfectly so but nevertheless I ended up with this
canvas strapped laco Ju 52 types C automatic pilot watch if we jump over to
the actual page for this watch you can see it tells a little bit about it Sam
blasted stainless steel case canvas band modified Miyota
automatic movement that is the 8218 may okay 82 18 automatic movement and
sapphire crystal we actually look at laco website
which is loca - watches comm they are selling this watch for six hundred and
fifty dollars six hundred and fifty dollars for this model Ju and then the
actual product number for this guy is eighty six one nine zero eight is the
product number specific product number for this we take a look and see what
it's selling for on a couple of other different websites Long Island Watch is
actually selling this watch for 650 dollars currently it's out of stock but
that's what they're listing it for it MSRP there is one - I'm sorry available
on Amazon for five hundred and ninety-nine dollars and then finally if
Laco Pilot Watch Review - Watchgang Platinum we jump over to eBay there's a whole buttload of these watches available on
eBay and they're ranging anywhere from five hundred dollars on up which is kind
of surprising that they would be listed that high but let's take a look at sold
listings for this lock oh and if I jump over here sold listings for this lock oh
and we see two of these lock oju fifty twos have sold one was originally listed
with a list price of 499 dollars the other one was listed at three hundred
and fifty dollars we don't know exactly what those were actually sold for
because the best offer was accepted on both of them my guess is they sold for
right around the subscription price because my gut tells me both of those
listings - maybe this first one were actually subscription watches as far as
the price is concerned I personally just for my taste I don't know if I would
spend that much on this watch it's a nice watch but there's some design
characteristics to it like a mention with the you know with the catches and
not being able to move on that whole nine yards I'm not necessarily sure I
would personally spend that much on this watch
but it is a nice watch I do like the weight to it it seems pretty pretty
sturdy seems well-built and overall outside of what I would assume for
accuracy on this I don't have any really any other issues with this watch to
speak of alright guys so that was the lock oju - 52 that I received as part of
my watch gang Platinum subscription for March 2018
I think this watch will likely stick around in my collection for a while it
is gonna have to be a weekend warrior considering those metal catches on the
strap there but I think it's something that you know over time will find its
place in my collection and I'll find exactly what situations I like this
watch the best in anyway guys if you have any questions or comments about
this watch or anything in general you can definitely post them up in the
