Vintage Fighter Pilot looking with beige/white face (made from Europe)
No website for this company, but...This is suppose to be the outside watch, made by Spain, with an automatic movement made by the Swiss vs another company, made by chi-com or sometimes claim to be a jap.Even the new Laco movement ($1,300+) is the jap movement.This version is quite good, the leather band is fine, night hands read okay and the looking like the vintage (beige/white) fighter pilot, is great. There is another version, made it look new with a black face.So-called crystal-mineral is really tempered glass for the lens.Very pleased.

Not digital. Quartz movement. Nice looking.
I have to admit, when I see other reviewers criticize this product because of losing 3 seconds/month vs. an atomic sync'd watch (digital), I really have to wonder, what is so important about a 3 second difference per month? What do they expect from a watch that is battery powered with quartz movement?I found most of the negative details in others' reviews to be really picky for the price (low) and quality (high) of this watch. The luminous dial works like luminous dials work. Phosphorescent, and thus needs to get a quick (2 seconds) charge of light to read. The hands are visible longer than the numbers or markings, and the second hand is not luminous, but a second hand is so thin, there is hardly any room for luminous paint to be visible.I love this watch, and others negative comments seem based on unrealistic expectations, or lack of understanding.No, the watch does not have H3 (like newer compasses/watches, and more expensive watches), nor does it use uranium like the early luminous dial watches, which also means that the luminous qualities on this watch will outlast the half-life of radioactive dials. This means that after a short period, it will need another bit of light from a small torch (flashlight). New mini LED flashlights (Streamlight recommended for brand) have pocket and hat clips and comfortably fit in your pants or shirt pocket (assuming you are using a pocket protector (shirt) or pants without anything other than the clip). I find that having a small LED mini torch is handy to just keep with you all the time, to find remotes, fumble with your keys, whatever. You could also charge it with a lighter, but a torch (flashlight) is safer and doesn't ignite or force you to risk burning yourself, and also works regardless of the wind.In any case, I love this watch and wear it every day. At night, I put it in its pouch when I go to sleep to keep the dust off, and to let any moisture evaporate from the band.I am very happy with my purchase.

WTI Watch Exceeds Expectations: A High-Quality Timepiece That Matches Premium Brands
After purchasing this watch, I was initially quite skeptical. However, to my surprise, it has proven to be well worth the price. The mechanism is accurate, and the luminous display functions effectively as well. There's really no need to invest in a Laco or Stowa (both excellent brands) when this watch performs just as well. Kudos to WTI for successfully replicating such a timeless piece!

Nice looking easy to read….
This is a very nice looking and easy to read watch. Sits nicely on the wrist and you don’t notice that it’s there. One drawback, is that the band is a standard fit which is almost to short for my wrist.Also it is stated that the dial is luminous, the only thing that is luminous is the hour and minute hands.As far as accuracy, it seems to be doing well. But I’ve only had it a couple of days.

Wonderful watch
In my opinion this watch is a beautiful reproduction of the original Flieger style time piece. The face holds true to the original design. The only difference I see is only the 3 hands are luminous, not the entire face. The strap is a nice soft leather. The price point is well worth it for an entry level pilot watch enthusiast and allows you to wear it as an every day watch without worry.

Giving up
Update: I’m giving up and returning this watch. It’s a shame because it’s exactly what I was looking for.Beyond the short band, the watch looses about 1.5 seconds a day. That may not seem like a lot, but it adds up very quickly. I am gauging it against my iPhone, so I feel very confident.Avoid!So I’ve only had this watch for a day, so I’ll update this about reliability. I set the time exactly to my iPhone and so far, it’s perfect.The watch is beautiful and exactly what I expected. Very easy to read.Here’s the issue. The band is far too short. It seems to be good quality and looks nice, so that’s a shame. I don’t have big wrists and I’m wearing it in the correct location above the bone. I can barely clasp the band in the longest hole and that hurts too much to even wear it.I’m keeping the watch. It’s very nice, but most men will need to add a new band in the cost. And certainly don’t buy it if the look of the band is part of your choice.

Very nice
Been looking for an LW replica. This would seem to be the best out there. Very attractive. Nice size without being TOO large. Strap is of decent quality for the price and is softer than a lot of ~$150 watches out there. I'm pleased enough to leave a review which I rarely do.
