Lemania, 40's ..... What else?

 
 By: Thebodyguard : March 13th, 2013-10:08
People, Last week I got this nice vintage Lemania...... Need some work to run again... Would you help me to identified this model and number? Thank you.......  

We need a true expert because ...

All Lemania calibers that started around the 13CH looks very similar to my untrained eyes. Ubik, for sure, should know. Once properly "disinfected", because it seems to suffer from a "green slime" contamination, it should be a very nice Lemania. Congratul... 

Looks like you have a nice Cal 19-9 CH, from Minerva.

Which should be housed in a 46 mm case. From the Fourties, it is described as a Pilot Watch. Well, you need to do some work on it, to clean the dial and polish the plexy, to service the movement, but it is worth it! Best, Nicolas.

Thanks people!!!

I found a number, 4241, angraved in the movement... Maybe it helps... Well, I sent the watch to a good professional... Let´s see what he can do... [ ] ´s..........

Looks like a nice ....

...old version Lemania caliber 15 CH BTW, also Omega used this movement, Omega named it 33.3 CHRO - a very reliable and classic movement. Even the crown looks original - nice "unbutchered" condition - don't let the repairing watchmaker do too much.... Bes... 

Thank you Suitbert....!!

You are right, looks like an 33.3 Omega... But there are differences. Below the Omega 33.3 Cheers. ...  

Your pic is a Tissot....

Hi, your picture shows a Tissot version of the same base. There are many different versions of the Lemania 15'' chrono caliber - among many other things the chrono bridge looks different as well, yours is the older version (as I wrote in my first post alr... 

Suitbert, thank you, help me a lot...!!!

Congrats on a lovely Lemania

In terms of the movement I think Suitbert has covered that. Perhaps I can give a little context to the brand. Back in the Thirties Omega and Tissot merged to form Société Suisse pour l’Industrie Horlogère (SSIH), a few years later they also brought in Lem... 

Different Omega versions of this Lemania base chronograph

I had some Omega information which I thought might be of interest for this thread. Omega released a number of variants of this movements as Cal 33.3 Chro over time, moving from a the original mono-pusher version, progressively adding a dual-pusher reset d...  

WOW. Amazing document Grumio

thnaks for sharing it. Can I ask what it comes from? Do you have a whole catalogue? I am crazy for old brochures and catalogues, each time I see one like this, it's like another piece of the jigsaw put into place.

Thanks Ubik
