1940s Lemania Chronograph

Why This Watch Matters It’s no secret that Lemania is one of our favorite vintage watch brands, and this new-old-stock chronograph is no exception. The Full Story Lemania-signed watches no longer exist but we wish they did. For us this chronograph is a complete package. This example is near-perfect with its sharp stainless-steel case (complete with bevels) and gorgeous silvered dial. The dial is accented by black indexes and a handset that really pops. On top of that, this watch comes with its original strap, buckle, and hang tag. We dare you to top that.
