I have a few questions about a Tissot Chronograph, please look at the pictures.

As far as I can se its a Lemania CH27 movement? or am I wrong?

The movement number is 1951, so it would be one of the earliest Lemania Ch27?

Best regards

 

Hello @Northmen and welcome to the forum!

You appear to have a two-register Lemania CH27 that Tissot referred to as the C27-4 chronograph. The serial on the inside caseback dates the watch to about 1942, so your movement is indeed from an early production run.

How did you come by this watch, and are you planning to restore it?

 

Thanks for your quick response really appreciate it

I bought a bunch of old "scrap-watches" and there it was.

I have all the parts from it, original... even the crystal that have a slight yellow/greenish color, so im just putting it together, just missing the screw for the stem.

There will be a challenge because I have never serviced this caliber before.

I will update with a picture when I am done.

 

One word: Wow!

 

I just put it together, but I have one problem with the chronoresetbutton..... its so loose so its not really stays in the movement, do you have any thoughts @Vitezi? I really appreciate your help

I will add some pictures on the watch assembled.

Best regards

 

@Northmen i assume you know that this is the Omega 320 movement although slightly and missing some small improvements. Omega called it the 27CHRO T1

that might help you track down what’s wrong. Heck even an Omega 321 guide would have the answer for you.

 

Thanks, it was to easy to explain..... feel so dumb but now its serviced and ready to be used
