Description

This is an automatically translated text.
Lemania has a long tradition of producing military watches, and this model in particular is an iconic pilot chronograph. Made over a period of about 20 years, from the 1950s to the early 1970s, in limited quantities, these watches have become highly coveted.
Equipped with a single-pusher mechanism based on the renowned Lemania 2220 movement, this timekeeper features prominent proportions, a matte black dial, and tritium luminescent syringe hands that ensure exceptional legibility. The robust, asymmetrical case design lends a contemporary appeal.
The dial proudly displays the broad arrow symbol, denoting membership in the British Army/Navy Air Force, and the "t" sign, indicating the presence of tritium on the dial and hands. Engravings on the case back include the designations "0552" (Royal Navy code), "924-3306" (watch model) and "80140" (service number).
Lemania has been a supplier to various military forces and official organizations. their watches, and sometimes their movements alone, were supplied to nations such as Czechoslovakia, France, Sweden, Rhodesia and Australia, among others. Conforming to strict British requirements for timepieces issued in the post-World War II period, Lemania military chronographs were remarkable creations whose heritage was steeped in a proud military tradition.
The example offered here is in superb, unrestored condition. The luminous black dial is immaculate.
Compared to other models in circulation, the case of this watch shows few signs of use except for a few surface scratches.
Movement and chronograph function work perfectly.
Dimensions: 40 mm (45 mm from lug to lug)
Width of lugs: 20 mm
Comes from Rpaddy private collection.
Shipping charges not included.
