Wow the Steinhart really looks big compared to the Laco.
Would be interesting to see the it in person, the dial would look cool under different lighting.

Was browsing Steinhart website and saw many special edition watches made specially for formmers (eg, Russia, Greece, Spain and etc).
Just wondering if there's any chance for a special edition watch just for Malaysia forummers?  :Jumping:

Why not? If we got the volume and willing to pay the price.
By the way, welcome to the forum.

Am definately interested in this. Steinhart's B-uhr special edition for Russia, Turkey, Spain's Legendario edition are all very nice.
Any idea what sort of volume are we referring to (50 to 100, or more?)

I've seen steinhart release special edition project watches in 55pcs...
WUS made one at 111pcs...
Maybe we can start one at 88pcs?
Should be able to hit the number I guess?
