    For any of you Tissot, Sinn, or Wakmann fans - can any of you point me toward which of these brand's watches utilized the Lemania 1340 or 1341?

    The Tissot Navigator uses a 1341.

    Tissot used the 1340, 1341, and 1343 in different models. Sinn used the 1340, I think. I do not remember seeing a 1341 in a Sinn, but the primary difference between the 1340 and 1341 is the former contains 22 jewels and the latter 17. There are a few other small differences but nothing that can be seen on the outside. There is at least one Wakmann model that resembles the Tissot Navigator and uses the 134x.

    My favorite Tissot with 1340:

    Do you have any photos of any of these watches WITH a 1340? I am forming the belief that Tissot or Sinn only used the 1341, never the 1340, though I am very interested in being shown otherwise (note, however, that I have seen some frankens which have the movement stamped with a 1340 but the bridge clearly reads '17 jewels'... and I have certainly seen the watches with '17 jewels' on the dial themselves.

    The Wakmann regata uses the 1341.

    Thanks!
