2 cents on the questions of...
: Would be difficult to hazard a guess as to
: "who made who" but if I could,
: then I would say Heuer were the likely
: candidates to put the case, bracelet and
: dial together, and of course Lemania made
: the movements.
: The Lemania would be regarded as the poor man's
I think that Lemania made both because the lack of fluted pushers on the Heuer ( Heuer used them on 510.500 etc.. ) And I think the Heuer is the "poor man's" in this case because Lemania made so few complete watches ( they made many movements ) and the 24hr added complexity would make it go for more on the open market . Maybe the Porsche Design Orfina would be the Poor man's? or Maybe vice versa ?
Great Photos !! I would not kick either of them out of my safe for losing a few seconds !!
