In the 1970s, Lanco (short for Langendorf Watch Company) continued to produce a wide range of high-quality watches, including both mechanical and quartz models. The company was known for its innovative designs and technologies, including the "Dynotron" movement, which used a battery-powered oscillator for improved accuracy. During this period, Lanco produced a variety of watches, from dress watches to sports watches. One notable model was the Lanco "Super Compressor," a diving watch that was water-resistant to depths of up to 600 feet (180 meters). The watch featured a patented "Super Compressor" case design that increased water resistance as the pressure increased, making it a popular choice among divers and watch enthusiasts. Lanco also produced a number of chronograph watches in the 1970s, including the Lanco sport chronographs. These watches were highly accurate and reliable, with precise timing and a range of functions, including stopwatch, date display, and tachymeter. Despite its reputation for quality and innovation, Lanco struggled to compete with larger Swiss watch brands in the highly competitive watch market of the 1970s. The company was eventually absorbed by the Swiss watchmaking conglomerate ASUAG (Allgemeine Schweizerische Uhrenindustrie AG) in the 1980s, and the Lanco brand was eventually phased out. However, vintage Lanco watches from the 1970s remain highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts for their quality, design, and innovative technology.

I ordered a vintage Omega watch and I am happy with my purchase. Communication was nice and helpful, package was shipped the closest working day and came on time - shipment was for free also.The watch is in a great condition, with nice new strap. I will buy again here for sure, the offer of watches is really great.

Ivana Mészáros

It took a lot of time for the package to be delivered and I still do not know if our email exchange was successful. However I received my watch as advertised and at a good price so I have no complaints in the end. These Serbs are even kind enough to save you some import taxes, so really they did me a solid.

Alexandros Sakogiannis

I thought the condition shown was almost too good to be true, but the watch is actually original as pictured and running accurately so far. I really want to emphasize the condition was immaculate for a vintage Omega. They also saved me on import fees into my country. I was really happy and surprised about that and it shows a lot of care. It’s a rare thing that I always commend shippers for.

Excellent Company to deal with. Very good web site, easy to navigate as well. Prices are very fair and photographs of watches excellent.The condition of my vintage Tissot was as good as it is possible with a pre-owned watch and the packing was VERY carefully and neatly done - my thanks to Marija? who sent the package.Prompt and courteous reply to my email - and many thanks for a great watch. Hope to deal with them in the near future.
