Description: NEW PRICE! Note: on January 1, 2025, I will remove this listing if not sold by then. Sharing this rare gem with all watch collectors and war artifact collectors. Behold the Lemania Royal Navy Monopusher Chronograph! Service Number H.S. /|\ 9 750 Original condition. Issued around 1942, this vintage beauty holds a special place in history. A dear friend gifted it to me 30 years ago - a timepiece that accompanied him during his service in the Royal Navy during World War II. He said I would know what to do with it "when the time was right." This timepiece has been treasured within a padded box, housed in temperature-controlled environments throughout all these years. I have never worn it for a prolonged period or out of my house. It is a spectacular piece of our past and military history. Though it's missing its chronograph pusher button, this is a small hurdle that can be overcome with the right expertise and using an original pusher button. The dial showcases a stunning patina, a testament to the watch's age and story. It proudly displays the signs of wear and tear, as expected from a combat watch. It comes with its original Bonklip style bracelet band, an elusive and sought-after accessory. Something to take note: the watch doesn't properly move or keep time at the moment, although you'll still hear a gentle winding sound when you turn the crown. A proper service with a reputable horologist will restore this wristwatch and historical piece to full capacity. This Lemania Royal Navy Monopusher Chronograph belongs to the early Series 1 radium dialed watches. Another important fact: it doesn't sport the Lemania logo, confirming its place amongst the early versions. The logo was later introduced in subsequent iterations. So, here it is—an exquisite piece of history longing for its next steward. Imagine the stories it holds, if only it could speak! With the right attention and care, this Lemania Royal Navy Monopusher Chronograph will embark on a new journey with you, springing back to life.
