For your consideration is a beautiful condition Wakmann Regatta chronograph watch. The watch runs perfect and was cleaned and timed several years ago. I had just got it back from the watchmaker because they closed shop. it has been sitting there for several years because it needed a new wheel for the big second hand which is the second pinion wheel for the chrono function. Some of the teeth were damaged. We could not find the part anywhere. finally I was able to buy many parts for this lemania movement which included the wheel i needed. There is actually several of them including many other parts for this movement and other lemania movements. I paid $250 for all the parts alone. But since the watch store was closing he gave me everything back. I do not want to bring it to another place as to repair I have since lost interest in evesting more money into the watch. The watch and parts will be sold together. the watch is in awesome condition and the dial and dial hands are beautiful. Case is beautiful condition also. the Crystal not original is also flawless but was cut to the watch and covering the outer inner ring. I was going to find a new crystal if I kept the watch. All in all a very nice watch which needs a minor repair. has a completely cleaned and timed movement and runs perfect. Perfect watch for any watchmaker collector with the parts to repair it. Thanks for looking.
