FS: PVD Lemania Philip Morris Chronograph

Greetings gents,

I've decided to part with a few watches that I'm not wearing much anymore. Keep an eye on the board — I've got a Heuer, an Enicar, a Vulcain and a Lemania all going for sale.

Even though many folks here know me — and happy to provide references — because I ask for tagged photos from some, I feel obliged to provide one myself:

The next watch is a Lemania chronograph made for Philip Morris and their Marlboro/McLaren F1 racing team (and emblazoned with their logo). Photos below do most of the talking (and thanks to Abel for the watch case used in the photos!), but this is a killer example. PVD is original and crisp — barely worn except a little right on the edges. The case is made of aluminum, so it's incredibly light and wearable.

The start/stop/reset action on these Lemania chronos might be the best I've ever felt. There's just something so tactile and different about the movements that feels really great when you're using them. All timekeeping and chrono functions are working properly and accurately.

The dirt/residue on the caseback is actually on the protective sticker. The watch itself is clean. The case measures 38mm across (not including the crown) and 45mm lug-to-lug.

These PVD watches are getting so hot right now and finding vintage examples in this condition is pretty rare.

Photos are all taken in natural light and unedited.

Price for Lemania/Philip Morris chronograph is $1250, shipped in the USA. Payment is net via Paypal. I'll split international shipping with the buyer upon request.

Again, keep an eye out for my next postings and e-mail me with any questions. Thanks to Jeff/CT for this space.
