Lemy Tg195...  

Sorry, I couldn't help myself ;-) . . . cordially, Art...  

Wish I could say the man was as handsome as the watch!!! David

different to the other versions in that it has an assymetric case to protect the crown. much harder to find that the other Lemania 1 buttons of the time. i had 2 of the others but never managed to get a TG195. nice watch Joe. Graham

Right...Graham, this Lemy Tg195 was issued to Swedish Military, equipped with Cal.2225. You may find another Lemy having the same asymmetric case issued to British RAF (Cal.2220). The Cal.2220 is a completely one-push chronograph movement but the Cal.2225... 

really love this well balanced dial. Cheers

As the song of The Clash: " Should I stay or shoudl I go "....LOL I'm now re considering adding it in my collection. I'm kind of attracted by this speical look, a bit like the Milgauss Green Glass... A weird watch, but appealing, at the same time... Thank... 

Just wonder and very supportive to see you pull the trigger. Cheers.

So, the more appropriate watch is certainly this one..On my wrist for 3 days, now... HAGWE!! nicolas...  

Fifty Fatham. One of those "evergreen" watch of modern times. Great looking and fits the weather in Paris now. By the way how hot is it?

But in Paris it always looks warmer, due to the lack of air... This FF is really a timeless piece, my friend. Something extraordinary, a keeper! Thanks for the nice words! nicolas

your BP FF is stunning - a real summer watch and it sits very well on you. I love the way they made the bezel and the deep black dial also ( you know Im a sucker for that!!!) HAGWE Nicolas all best from COD

Too bad about the hair on the sleeve. Thought that was on my screen for a second. LOL cheers fernando

because of the "unidimensional" dial. I have no idea why they did it this way. Maybe because of the "old style"?! Usualy (in these days) they do it like this: Anyway - nice shot! ;-) oliver...
