Item History & Price
This is a very nice Bucherer Bi-Compax Chronograph Chronographe Suisse 18k GF Vintage Original Dial. Dial marked as follows : Bucherer Chronographe Suisse 17 jewels antimagneticDial is a beautiful beige silver with applied gilt dot markers and a Bi-Compax layout with a 30 minutes counter at 3 O'Clock and running seconds at 9 o'clock. Hard to photograph but these dials have concentric circles. This is the original dial and features at the border a gorgeous blue tachymeter scale (hard to... capture in photos). Plastic crystal. Diameter without crown is 35 mm. The movement is a manual wind Landeron Caliber 48 movement. Note, as is typical for this movement, the top pusher starts the chronograph and the bottom pusher stops and resets it. This appears to be an 18k gold filled case and has stainless steel back. Condition is good for a watch likely 60-70 years old. Watch was purchased from an auction house (last 2 pictures)Comes with an original vintage Bucherer leather strap (albeit a bit too narrow) so I am also including a new leather strap with the sale. Chronograph runs well and resets to zero. Condition is "Pre-owned" and sold as is.
