Stowa Unveils Flieger Olymp Trio Inspired By Olympic Medals

MRSTATELESS NEW RELEASES, STOWA 2024, Limited Edition, Pilot Watch 0

German watchmaker Stowa, known for producing pilot’s watches and becoming popular for being one of the official suppliers of the German Luftwaffe, presents a trio of watches dedicated to the Olympic Games.

The new Stowa Flieger Olymp comes in different materials, living up to the three Olympic medals – gold, silver and bronze. With a Type A layout on the dial and hand-wound movement visible through the open case back.

The rose gold edition comes in a 41mm by 12.80mm case featuring a polished finish, the 925 silver edition comes slightly larger with a 42mm by 13.50mm case and with a sand-blasted matte finish, the same as we found in the edition bronze although it comes with the dimensions of the gold version.

The round cases feature a smooth bezel, narrow lugs, sapphire crystal, onion-shaped crown that in the gold version is replaced by a fluted crown with the brand’s signature, screwed sapphire case back and 50m water resistance.

On the matte black dial, the traditional arrangement with large Arabic numerals and a triangle between two dots at noon, baton minutes markers and three heat-blue centre hands all filled with old Radium Super-LumiNova and the usual absence of inscriptions that characterize the brand.

The open case back reveals the 17-jewel ETA 6498-1-based Caliber M1 hand-winding movement that operates 18,000 Vph and offers up to 46 hours of power reserve. Decorated with sunray stripes on the bridges, gold engravings, blue screws and lilac jewels.

The new Stowa Fliger Olymp comes attached to a vintage-inspired leather strap in brown, black or grey with a pin buckle in the same material as the case.

The bronze edition is limited to 18 units and comes with a price of €4,124.12, the 9-piece silver comes marked with a fee of €5,157.73 and finally the gold edition of just 3 items has a charge of €9,808.99.

Stowa Flieger Verus Now Arrives In 36MM

MRSTATELESS NEW RELEASES, STOWA 2024, Pilot Watch 0

Today, following market trends in a path already taken by many others, the brand now brings a reduced-size version of its 36mm Flieger Verus watch that joins its 40 and 42mm siblings.

The new watch follows its peers in the collection by wearing a round stainless steel case with a slim bezel and bead-blasted finish, sapphire crystal, onion-shaped crown at 3 o’clock, open case back and 50m water resistance.

The matte black dial comes in the usual Flieger Type-A configuration, with Arabic numerals and sword hands all filled with Super-LumiNova BGW9 accompanied by a dash minute track. Everything else that is little, may or may not be added by the buyer as an option, and we are talking about the brand logo at noon and the round date window on the opposite side replacing the 6 o’clock index.

But the buyer’s options don’t end there, for those who don’t know the brand it may seem strange but for those who do not, there is the possibility of opting for different types of movements and with different levels of finish. In the new Verus 36mm, there is the possibility of choosing between the automatic Sellita SW200 movement with 38h power reserve or the manual Sellita SW210 movement with 42h power reserve, the first of which also offers the possibility between a standard finish and a more careful one.

The watch comes attached to a black leather strap without the rivets that we normally find on pilot’s watches, now adding a second possibility of coming with a mesh steel bracelet with a folding clasp.

Prices start at €950 for the automatic version with a standard finish, €1,080 for the same movement with a more careful finish and finally €1,100 for the manual variant.
