Chronograph : the venerable Lemania and the others...
Dear all,
What do you think of the venerable Lemania movement (picture below) compared with the more recent movements from Patek or Lange ?

the lemania ch 27 chrono c12 aka 2320 is a top of the range movement
I think the lemania 2327 or the movement that served as the base for the patek ch 27-70q or the movement found in the vacheron constantin chronograph "les historiques" is a proven perfomer, it has been concepted in the forties and tested successfully with...
