Bit of History:
Swiss brand "Bouchet-Lassale SA" was founded by Jean Bouchet-Lassale in 1976. The company won several awards with its watches for thinnest mechanical movements ever made and by using ball bearings instead of jewels. In 1979 "Jean Lassale" is bought by Seiko, while the technical documents and the patents were used to start a new famous company "Nouvelle Lemania SA". Seiko successfully fitted these watches with some unique high end ultra-thin quartz movements later on while thin was "IT" in the 80's, but unfortunately in 2003 the company completely dissolved.
