In Response To: a question regarding tag heuer & the lemania5100 (georges zaslavsky)

Hi George,

Great idea....but apparently the Swatch Group has decided to keep all past and present Lemania for their own Brand Omega.

That's what fans of the Lemania brand [and especially the 5100] have heard in the past and we have assumed the worse. Swatch Group's decision [and the folks behind it] aren't held in high regard as a result of their decision[s].

So we'll have to find other ideas and movements to build our future. I have several ideas....

I have to admit, a 510.501 reissue of some stripe with a central chronograph minute counter [perhaps using the movement used in the Aquagraph 2000] would be a very difficult product to resist.

even though a 750.501 would probably be easier to to get out the door:

How cool with either be with a sapphire crystal and a solid modern TAG-Heuer W/R rating? Thanks for keeping communication channels open Mr. Babin!
