Stowa Flieger Review
By putting out exceptional timepieces and providing some of the best customer service in the business, Stowa, under the helm of J?rg Schauer, has built up an unshakeable reputation within the WIS community. Schauer, who acquired the struggling company from the founding Storz family in 1996, recognized the inherent beauty of the brand's heritage. As such, he envisioned Stowa's current lineup by looking to the past, bringing back into production modern versions of Stowa's historical timepieces. Among the watches to return was the Flieger series.In 1939, Stowa launched production of their flieger (pilot) watches for the German Luftwaffe (air force).

Speedmaster Bezel INSERT Removal...?

Just bought a 5146 - no clasp!
Hi I got carried away at a viewing today and ended up buying a 5146 annual calendar from Watch&passion (i can't post links but a google search will find it).I am delighted with the watch, but i can't help noticing it didn't come with1. A deployment clasp in gold with emblem2. the two things that slide into the watch cushion (tag and tool?)is this a deal breaker, and should i return it?I really want the clasp, as i think it makes the watch look special from underneath, maybe i can buy it separately? what are your thoughts? Thanks in advance.

To my PP friends����.
Hopefully the mods will give me some latitude here as this isn't strictly PP related, but I wanted to share with my friends on the PP forum that I got engaged last night! I managed to make it to 42 years old without being married, but I am finally growing up! I thoughts watches were expensive until I discovered the world of diamonds! Please raise a virtual glass with me to celebrate!

If you're thinking of brushing out PCL's.......
DO IT! It took me about a year to finally decide have it done. I only regret I didn't do it sooner. I highly recommend LA Watchworks. $90 + shipping. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
