They registered many brand names over the years, including Laco and Lonville. The name is owned today by the Swatch Group but, as far as I know, is not actively promoted. They were a great watch in their day, and I suspect Swatch is waiting to find the right "niche" for this brand. 18mm lug opening fitted with used but serviceable brown genuine lizard Italian-made band.
