Everywhere is documented that cal.12 is a manual wind Lemania, is it the same movement as cal.12 in 8806 but this one is an automatic? Confused! Thank you if somebody can help me out! |

Breitling in their infinite wisdom decided to reuse the "cal.12" for their Lemania 1873 installed in some of their 1990s watches. the sane world knows cal. 12 as the third variation of the "project 99" modular Bueren/Dubois-Depraz automatic chronograph caliber. |

As nowadays Tag Heuer which was a part of the project 99 as Heuer , shows the same infinite wisdom by re-using the "cal12" for their new Monaco encasing a Sellita R300 automatic ... and "cal11" for their new Monaco with 9h crown encasing a ETA2892A with chronograph module rotated of 180°. |
