Horological Meandering

Nice Lemania implementation..

 

Which is a caliber 1873 (or perhaps an Omega 1861--can't see too well on my iPhone). This one has more anglage on the chronograph clutch wheel cock than is usual with these, but, no, these are not movements in $20k+ watches. Beautifully functional though.

I own one of these in a Heuer 1963 Carrera Re-Edition, and several automatic versions (Lemania 1350 that became the caliber 137 family) in various Ebels.

No bought it as a NOS from 2003 so no more warranty I\'m afraid. It survived multiple waterproof tests in sweet and salt water pools and the Mediterranean Sea. It keeps excellent time. So I might just turn it in this winter for a service but I might keep ...

[if you right click and open the images in a new tab, you get higher res pics of these!] You can just barely make out the sunburst finish of the dial in the image (if you look carefully under the 12, you'd see a hairline "scratch". That is just the camera...

ie the 1861 but meant for display backs and therefore has Cotes de Geneve. Anglage is surprisingly nice for its range! Regards, skyeriding

iPhone is not a good macro camera..

So don\'t zoom into this. I need a supplemental lens, I guess. But it looks good on an iPhone screen, heh. --Rick ...
