Production of the 13CH movements by Lemania begun in 1932, supplying Tissot and Omega (Omega 28.9) mainly. A small caliber, which was the first real wrist chronograph movement for these brands. Very soon, one year later in 1933, Omega and Tissot started using the bigger and more reliable Lemania 15CH (Omega 33.3) caliber for their chronographs. So fewer and fewer watches were made with the 28.9 movement until the end of production in 1943. Examples with this little gem by Lemania are so scarce now, making them highly sought after by collectors!!
