Please note that we may withdraw the product unexpectedly due to the parallel sale of the product with our hp.
Please understand it beforehand. We are pleased to announce the arrival of a vintage chronograph with a powerful cushion case, which cannot be seen in the present day.
It is equipped with the Cal.Lemania 1873 = omega Cal.861 movement.
This means that this is a very rare watch that shares its lineage with Breitling and Omega.
Wachmann was Breitling's brand for the American market, which existed from the 1940s to the 1970s.
The model name "Ref. 9657 Long Playing" is commonly used by Breitling-Wachmann, and this watch is a Breitling model for the American market.
Wachmann, who had been selling watches in Lisbon, Portugal, came to the United States in 1943 and established the Wachmann Watch Company to promote the high-end Swiss watch brand, which was still almost unknown at the time, in the North American market.
Later, he established Breitling Watch Corporation of America through a joint venture with Breitling, one of the company's major customers.
From the 1930s through the 1960s, it was not uncommon for other Swiss watch manufacturers to have multiple brands, depending on the market and the intended audience.
The best known brands for the U.S. market were, for example, Longines with its Wittner brand, Breitling with its Wachmann brand, and Jaeger-LeCoultre with its LeCoultre brand to expand its sales channels in the American market.
