====== ETA C01.211 ======
**Calibre C01.211** is an inexpensive [[automatic chronograph]] movement made by [[ETA]] for [[Tissot]] since [[2008]].

===== Overview =====
The [[Lemania 5100]] was a legendary workhorse of a movement, constructed from stamped steel, delrin plastic, and other simple materials. It was designed to compete with emerging inexpensive movements from [[Seiko]] and others, and to be cheap to assemble and service. It features a "6-9-12" arrangement of [[subdial]]s but moves [[chronograph minutes]] to the central axis, giving watches using this movement a distinctive "four-handed" look. Although quite successful, the Lemania 5100 was not suitable for [[display caseback]]s and did not adapt well to additional [[complication]]s. It went out of production in [[2002]], replaced by the more attractive and conventional predecessor [[Lemania 1350|Cal. 1350]].

In [[2008]], [[Tissot]] requested a low-cost mass-produced chronograph movement for entry-level Swiss watches. [[ETA]] created this **Cal. C01.211** based on the Lemania 5100 design. It was simplified and re-worked to be more attractive, with plates and bridges finished in a more refined manner. Additionally, jewel count was reduced to 15, operation slowed to 21,600 A/h, and the minute counter was moved to the 12 00 position. This made it a more conventional movement, functioning similarly to the common [[ETA 7750]].

Variations on this movement design include 

  * Removal of the [[day window]] at 3 00
  * 6-hour or 12-hour [[chronograph hours]] at 6 00
