Another fresh arrival on the wrist this morning. Meylan/Lemania ref. 805-64 cal 2310 (aka Omega 321).
Case appears to also have been used for deliveries to Omega as ref ST 105.001?



And a movement shot prior to a service and cleaning:


Very nice, especially that big and bold logo! 馃榾

The Meylan name keep popping up in Swiss watch history. The managing director of Lemania at the time of merger with SSIH (Omega/Tissot) held this name. He later moved on to the management of SSIH itself. Names like Piguet and LeCoultre is also found in the Meylan family tree. There is some info to be found on the net, but not very easy to get the picture.
My watch has a signed crown with the Lemania logo on it. I Guess branding was not as strict as today. 馃槈

Interesting and really a great watch. Everything about it is so reminiscent of the 1950麓s Seamaster chronographs but it has that lovely multi coloured dial which gives it that something extra. Really very nice 馃憤

I wish I could capture a picture that shows how this dial is starting the first stage of going tropical.

That's a real beauty, Dougie! Gotta be careful wearing long sleeves or those lugs will cut up your cuffs. What caliber and ref. is that? Absolutely stunning!
Thanks,
She's a Ref. 2782-9 SC, Bumper cal. 354, SN 14,311,xxx. Bought from 'fabsuisse' on eBay, one of our recommended buyers there.
