Our Modern Fliegeruhr – Aviator is a much anticipated model in the watch community due to its contemporary design. It is an upgraded version of the WWII-era Flieger. Its visually appealing dial together with skeletonized hands makes it an attractive timepiece to own! Specif ... Continue Reading
Loading ...I would like to take the opportunity to praise the Praesto Modern Fliegeruhr automatic watch which I recently received from the Giovino Watch Company.
I was pleasantly surprised with the level of refinement in this limited edition timepiece as it exudes sheer quality and attention to detail for a watch brand that I have not tried before.
The Miyota Cal 8245 movement winds very easy and the hand winding action is as smooth as silk. I don't think I could find the same level of features and finish in a Seiko watch for the same price range.
The lume on the Modern Fliegeruhr is applied uniformly and Praesto did not skimp on the amount of Superluminova material, unlike Seiko's contemporary non-diver's watches.
The bead blasted stainless steel finish is professionally done and for the asking price is at par with Swiss military styled watches costing USD1,000 or more.
I love the thick calf leather strap that comes with the watch and the detailed caseback engraving. The watch has a very solid feel to it and I like its large size.
That said, I find it hard to find a watch of this price range with the same level of refinement from SINN, Fortis or Victorinox Swiss Army.
Needless to say, the Praesto Modern Flieguhr exceeded my initial expectations.
Keep up the good work!
