NOTES: The Lemania 1340/1341 caliber is an icon among collectors. This automatic central minutes chronograph from the early 70’s was a symbol of reliability and technical advancement among automatic chronographs at the time. While the Lemania 1340 was also used by fellow SSIH (forerunner of the Swatch Group) brand, Tissot, Omega made it their own 1040 calibre by adding a 24-hour indicator inside the running seconds subdial and increasing the jewel count from 17 to 22. Omega used this movement in several watches, including the Mark IV Speedmaster and the famous Seamaster 120, aka the “Big Blue” dive chronograph. Omega also modified the calibre 1040 to use in the 1973 Speedmaster 125, which made it the world’s first chronometer-certified chronograph. Later, after Lemania passed from the hands of SSIH to Heuer, and finally to Breguet, a version of the 1340 was used in the well known Breguet Type XXI chronograph. Source: Hodinkee
