The young self -taught watchmaker Alfred Lugrin created his company in 1884 in a workshop, where he manufactured chronometers and chronographs of all kinds.
For lack of space he moved in 1886 in a near locality, the East.
In 1930 his son -in -law Marius Meylan succeeded Lugrin and founded the company Lemania.
In 1932 the company joined the giron of the SSIH Omega Tissot group.
Under the aegis of the new owners, it manufactures in just a few years a rich range of different chronograph calibers, one of them accompanied the first men on the Moon in 1969.
The proposed model is a 1950 chronograph developed for the Istituto Idrografico della Marina, created in 1917 in order to standardize, organize and make measurements: rainfall, hydrometry and tide in Italy.
