LIFETIME SERVICE COMMITMENT This rare Lemania single button chronograph was produced sometime in the late 1940's for Britain's Royal Navy. The watches were worn by the Navy pilots and navigators. Lemania continued supplying them until the early 1960's. This piece is in excellent condition with a naturally patinated dial. The watch was just serviced by our team and is running as well as it did when new. It keeps excellent time and the chronograph functions correctly. It is fitted with an appropriate styled adjustable nylon strap.
