The TG195 is special in so many ways. The complication for synchronizing time is very cool, and also nicely executed.
After I wrote the OP I have also learned that TG is perhaps not an abbreviation for "Tids Givare", but rather "Tyg Grupp". Both makes sense, and as it seems even the Swedish guys can not decide fully on the subject I am open for both interpretations.
The 22xx calibers (15CH based) spawned a very cool range of products:
- 2220 "RAF`" chronograph.
- 2221 "RCAF-only" chronograph. Basically a 2220 with a hacking feature. Badegd as an Omega, but in all aspects a Lemania. The serial numbers are even Lemania and not Omega derived!
- 2225 TG195. Not a chronograph, but using the chronograph based construction to create one of the coolest complications ever.
- 2040 Auricoste Type20 version of the 2220, with proper Fly-back chronograph.
I am still looking for a nice 2220, Those came in both singel and dual pusher configurations as well.
