Explore a pristine 1940s Lemania 15 TL chronograph with original box and papers. Discover its historical links to Omega and Tissot movements.

Credit picture; Christies. Olive pushers, lovely crown, timeless dial, a case with great proportions ( 37 mm ) but which wears bigger, and cherry on the cake, the condition! AND, the box, and... the papers? Yes, a lovely time capsule. And truly my cup of tea! Best, Nicolas

If memory serves...

I believe this is the time when Omega and Tissot owned Lemania and encouraged watch, not only movement, production. -Dean
