As I said n my first post here, I truly believe that this re-scanning is entirely due to the original design materials still residing with Lemania, and all this re-engineering guff is a bit sad when they should really be crediting Lemania with the design, rather than trying to snatch credit for themselves as a "re-design".Originally Posted by gruntfuttock
I think we have to acknowledge that there are only so many combinations when it comes to an analogue watch design, and with so many lovely vintage designs to be inspired by, I still see merit in re-imagining old ones.
But I do think that when you do so, it is important to use all of the modern technology at your disposal to improve the original without ruining it.
As a result, I see the (most likely) amazingly expensive re-engineering of the 321 as a bit of a sideshow - if I want a watch with this movement I will search out an old Lemania (or even a Tissot) and save myself the price of a daily runabout.
