For sale is a gorgeous Tissot Navigator from the mid-early 1970s with Lemania 1341 movement.  Lots to say about this beautiful Panda-dialled watch! My favorite feature of this watch is the unusual chronograph.  The chronograph tracks seconds and minutes on two central sweep hands.  It makes it SO much easier to see elapsed time than on the typical tiny subdials that are used for the same purpose.  The airplane tip on the minutes hand is just slick if you ask me.  The subdials are sweep seconds and a 12h register. I love the precision and subtlety of the dial. There are markers between the minutes, and the tachymeters print just has this clarity to it that’s really striking.  The colors play well with a crisp contrast.  All the chronograph hands are in orange, where the sweep second is silver - tasteful detail!  The dial appears white in lower light, with a subtle silver emerging in daylight.  The tachymeter slopes down to meet the dial, and the contrast black on silver is really beautiful. This Lemania 1341 movement has some heritage, too.  It predates the well-regarded Lemania 5100, and was used by Omega as the base module for their storied 1040.  During this era, Tissot and Lemania were under the same umbrella company - SSIH - and shared parts.   Read below for About Me. I'm new here, have never sold any of my watches, and I get that may be a concern. I'm an open book - if you're seriously interested, I'd be glad to get on the phone. **Model:** Tissot Navigator ref. 45501. Movement is the Tissot 2170/Lemania 1341 — Automatic @ 28,800 bph. Case dimensions are 38.5mm in diameter, 14mm thick, 20mm lug-width, 43mm lug-to-lug. **Condition:** Amazing for a watch this age!  The dial has zero signs of wear.  There are very slight marks on the base of the silver hands, more visible in the high-res photos than on the wrist.  The crystal has a few marks - visible in photos, the most significant is the apparent ding around 1 o’clock.  The case appears untouched, still has gorgeous original starburst lines on top of the case, with polished sides, which my research says is typical for this model.  There are some faint scratches on sides and caseback, but no gouges or dings.   Service history is unknown, but everything runs and the chrono resets to a very precise zero.  Please check out photos carefully, they are high res.    **Includes:** Tissot-signed strap and buckle in almost-new condition. Also Tissot box and papers, but I am not convinced these are the original box and papers.  There’s a small brochure for a different movement than this watch has.   **Price:** $1,999, open to offers.  Includes FedEx Express insured shipping to USA. Payment accepted is bank wire, Zelle, PayPal G&S with references (fees covered by buyer). **Pictures:** [https://imgur.com/a/uHYnJOm](https://imgur.com/a/uHYnJOm) **Timestamp:** [https://imgur.com/a/HR3BCN3](https://imgur.com/a/HR3BCN3) **About Me:** I got bit by the collection bug about a decade ago. The passion waned, the watches went into (well-protected, indoor) storage. It's just time to sell them all.   I know it's hard to buy online, harder still when the Seller has no trust built up in the community.  If this watch makes your heart beat faster, message me!  I'm sure we can find a way to address your concerns with the right dialogue. I'll respond promptly, and I'm willing to get on the phone or a FaceTime with the watch and my smiling face. **Reviews:** [Reddit sales post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Watchexchange/comments/nb1lxy/wts_tissot_navigator_ref_45501_feat_lemania_1341/) with great details (note price is 3 years old), [Fratello review 1](https://www.fratellowatches.com/tbt-tissot-navigator-chronograph/#gref), [Fratello review 2 ](https://www.fratellowatches.com/hands-on-tissot-heritage-1973-chronograph-review/)
