Lemania Chronograph 805 Gray Dial
Cal. 27-CHRO-C12 - flawless dial - very attractive watch
The fascinating grey to anthracite dial with three sub-registers is in flawless condition. The black minute track creates a subtle two-tone effect and complements the outer tachymeter scale. The white hands provide strong contrast and ensure excellent legibility. The Lemania signature at 12 o’clock is crisp and precisely executed.
With a diameter of 36 mm, the watch offers ideal proportions for a classic vintage chronograph. Thanks to the generously designed dial without a dominant bezel, it wears larger on the wrist while maintaining an elegant appearance.
Inside operates the legendary caliber 27-CHRO-C12 – one of the most important chronograph movements in watchmaking history. Introduced in 1942, this movement represents high-level watchmaking and served as the foundation for one of the most iconic chronograph calibers ever made - The Omega Moonwatch caliber, known as the “321”.
This Lemania chronograph combines appealing aesthetics with historical relevance – an authentic collector’s piece with timeless character.
