Ying & Yang of Chronos.. The case of a nice Lemania Duo..

Friends, some of you may remember, when I some months ago
reported about a nice Lemania Single Pusher Chrono, I had found
last fall.

This Military piece, originated for the Swedish Air Force, and had
found my stable, with the kind help of a very good friend here.

Just see here 2 quick pics

Nice caseback with the Swedish Three Crowns

In fact, we now happily share the same reference of this timepiece..



I really like the nice, clean dial & the Single Pusher Chrono,
driven by the Lemania Cal Tg195.

It has an unobtrusive but balanced dial, nice patina and stepped bezel,
giving it a bit a bullish look, but not without charm & coolness.

Also a pronounced, well built case, polished on top, brushed at the sides.

Ever since I had been on the lookout for a counter-piece,
white dialled of another single pushher Chrono, as I really enjoyed
wearing & enjoying my first one..

About few months ago, when browsing through some old & new
pieces at my watchdealers store, it turns out, that such one
had come in.



Lemania Chrono, Cal 15Tl, British Military

The case looked fine and the light dial clean, well kept,
2 subcounters, 30 mins @3 & subsecond @9.
All with a decent patination; slightly accentuated index points
and so the numbers 6 & 12.

Again Single pusher and a Lemania movement, typically
fixed strap pins, up-arrow & Incabloc on dial.

Casewise very similiar, except for the crowns, which are
"encarved" (or cut-in) on the black dialled Tg195, regular on the 15 Tl.


Pleasant & clean dial



Comfy & balanced on the wrist



Lemania 195Tg & 15Tl


Ying & Yang

Hope you liked this cute Military Duo.

- I am quite happy to have encountered it..

Cheers & Best,
