Tutima Glashütte — independent family manufacture. Founded 1927.
Military NATO Chronograph 798-22
7 g in all directions, 200 metres below sea level, 15,000 metres above — this mechanical microcosm remains unaffected.
Heritage Collection
Bundeswehr-selected, 1984. NSN 6645-12-194-8642.
Produced: 1984-2008
After careful scrutiny of the offers, the German armed forces awarded the contract to Tutima.
Why It Matters
7 g in all directions, 200 metres below sea level, 15,000 metres above — this mechanical microcosm remains unaffected. The center 60-minute hand with its red tip eliminates the irritating, distracting search for the usual small 30-minute timer.

Lemania 5100: 'We Took Precautions in Time'
· 2002–presentLemania announced in 2002 they would stop producing the Cal. 5100. Tutima had already stockpiled movements. 'Wir haben beizeiten vorgesorgt' — we took precautions in time, said Dieter Delecate. The stockpiled movements serve two purposes — developing Tutima's own calibers, including the Cal. 521 with its patented central minute hand, and providing spare parts for servicing older military models no longer in production.
