Y regret? Just buy their distressed leather or a 3rd party one lor. $200 can get very good quality liao.

Im looking for a brown strap for my pam 104. where is a place to hoot. i kinda detest the normal pam buckle... its very troublesome to wear. a simpler one as close to the original would be awesome! tia!

Stowa only do online sales. No physical shops anywhere. Their watches are good. Value for money. So in demand until must wait a few months for their in stock.

Not that we ignore, but Edox I doubt got any one has real life experience with one. Their pricing can get some better ones with better brands. Reality is brand > watch to most people.

Some of the designs you posted look like tissot, casio, citizen, etc. I think you can do better but as we always advocate here, as long as you are happy just buy. You feel shiok we see already also shiok.

the original contract manufacturer for the b-uhr fleiger observations watches were stowa, laco, wempe, iwc & als (surprise! surprise) according to strict german war contract designs.

wempe is since defunct, als no longer do fleigers and iwc has strayed so far from the original designs & overcharging for eta movements to be irrelevant. heck even archimede and other micro brands like azimuth produce a closer facsimile than iwc.

that leaves stowa & laco who still produces their fleigers close to the original design.

the proper size of the b-uhr fleiger is a dinner plate sized 55mm, with a dull grey painted look case and straight lugs, NO display caseback (solid caseback only), with caseback & side of case etched with characteristic markings.

for these reasons, i feel laco > stowa as they still preserve these elements (except for the 55mm size) better than stowa.

Which PAM model is the classic that may be regarded as the "equivalent" as the submariner is to the Rolex sports series?
