Marketed by Walkmann by printing their brand name over Lemania. see the last photos of the dial. Lemania was one of the well-known manufacturers of chronograph movements that went bankrupt due to the quartz crisis of the 1970s. The Lemania movements can be found in many timepieces from the renowned manufacturers of the twentieth century. The movements are considered "bulletproof" among collectors. The caliber 930 of the Omega Bullhead from 1969 is also based on the Lemania movement 1872. In the early 1970s, Lemania decided to produce the Bullhead under its own brand name. Lemania used some prototype dials that Omega never installed in their watches. The Bullhead's asymmetrical body design is extravagant and unusual. The winding crown and pushers are on the upper side of the case. This Walkmann Bullhead with lemania movement 1872 is an extremely rare and collectible wristwatch
