Lugrin SA, Fabrique d'horlogerie Lemania, L'Orient,Suisse, now Nouvelle
Lemania, Manufacture d'Horlogerie, belonging to the Swatch Group (it
had joined the SSIH (OMEGA 6 TISSOT) in the Sixties, also selling
movements to other companies, including Longines, until appr. 10 years
ago Mr. Hayek inforced a very restrictive distribution. The company
was founded in 1884, specialised in making and placing mechanisms for
repeaters, chronographs, timers, rough movements, fly-back seconds and
daters; the work was both of good standard quality and high quality at
advantageous prices.

You can google many different sites relating to the main Lemania
calibres.
