Hello,
I am wondering if anyone can provide some assistance in identifying this model of Lemania wrist watch. It was most likely purchased mid-late 1950s to early 1960s. I have found many similar models but none that matches exactly. Currently the movement is not functioning. If anyone could tell me its approximate worth and if it is worth repairing it would be kindly appreciated.
Thank you.

Watches of this sort won't really have a model number, but would identify themselves by the type of movement they contain.

Is there any way you can tell me how much it is worth and if it is worth repairing without knowing specifically what type of movement it uses? It is at least some sort of Lemania movement.

Running it's worth $600-700 I would imagine.

Thank you so much for your help so far. The watch does carry some sentimental value for me as well since it was owned by my father. It's good to hear that it's probably worth the cost of repair. Could you possibly suggest a good watchmaker for the repair and service I know it needs?

Thanks again for your assistance.

Please disregard my last post. I am sending my watch to you for repair.

My apologies.
