Devoted to Heuer chronograph wrist watches, dash clocks and timers powered by Valjoux movements. Very well done and worth a visit.

Alliance Horlogere
This website has a fascinating video showning the reassembly of a Valjoux 7750, and lists several Valjoux service manuals as well.  To see the video, click on the link below, the click on Under The Loupe, scroll down to Calibres and click on Chronographs, and under Calibres you will see a link for ETA 7750. Click on that and the video will start.  Very worth while.

About the Lemania Watch Company
A brief history of another great name in Swiss watch movement manufacture.  Lemania was first acquired by the Swatch Group to primarily supply movements for Brequet. Today it has been entirely absorbed into Brequet and the Lemania name has sadly vanished.
