This is a beauty. This is a very rare collector watch., excellent condition 1970s vintage 3-register automatic chronograph from Bucherer, Switzerland's largest Rolex retailer. The watch features an all stainless steel hidden-lug cushion case, with screw-down stainless-steel case-back. Please look at all the pictures, as they are part of the description. The watch is working and fully inspected. Contact me if you have any questions.
This was has so much similarity to Vintage Mens Heuer Automatic Pasadena 1970s 42mm Rare Valjoux 7750 Watch LV269, which has the same movement and type of case looks a like and 1002, Pilot HEUER Pilot Chronograph 510.501 with different movement but looks similar again. Also, very close to Omega Speedmaster Chronograph Mark 4.5 Ref 176.0012 Day Date (again they use 1045 movement but casing and movement configuration) for half the cost.
This is a highly collectible watch. Very few left with this rare movement. Sure, to increase in value overtime, and a great addition to your collection. The condition of the watch is the same as it appears in the photos. The watch is working and is part of our new Certified Pre-Owned CPO Program. Contact me if you have any questions first.
