A true connoisseur’s find: this two-tone Lemania from the 1950s embodies the quiet elegance of mid-century Swiss watchmaking. While it shares a kinship in design with Omega’s Seamasters of the era, it retains its own identity, powered by Lemania’s finely built in-house automatic movement.
The creamy dial is untouched, its warmth complemented by applied rose gold markers and dauphine hands that still sparkle as they did over half a century ago. The stainless steel screw-back case, generously proportioned for its time, remains crisp and unworn, a testament to its careful preservation.
Still accompanied by its original strap and tag, this watch has never left its state of new old stock. To encounter a Lemania of this calibre, in such untouched condition, is to hold a piece of history exactly as it was presented to its first would-be owner — a rarity that speaks directly to the heart of the collector.
