More information
Issued to the Swedish Armed Forces in the 1950s, this Lemania Tg 195 features the rare “small crowns” stamped caseback and a stunning tropical dial, aged to an even, brown tone.
Though often mistaken for a monopusher chronograph, the Tg 195 houses the Lemania caliber 2225, a hacking movement with a unique synchronisation function. Pressing the top pusher resets the seconds hand and pops out the crown; pushing the crown back in restarts the movement – ideal for precise military time coordination.
At least four types exist with “TG 195” or “Tg 195” text, some versions with radium or tritium lume.
