Description from the seller

Welcome to my Top Swiss Chronographs Boutique:

Édouard Tiéche and Ernest Otto Gammeter founded the company in 1906.
December 30, 1909 Vidar is entered in the Swiss trademark register by the company L. Tiéche-Gammeter, Solothurn.
In 1916 Meyer & Stuedeli SA takes over L. Tiéche-Gammeter company in order to use the high-quality movements with anchor escapements developed in their own watches.

Case:
- 316L stainless steel, polished
- 45mm excl. crown, 47,5mm incl.
- 15mm thick

Distinctive design.
Excellent condition, brand new, never worn.
Vidar producers warranty. Full set. Chic black authentic watch box (see pics).
Insured, registered shipping worldwide with Intl. Express service: it’s not cheap, and yet fast and reliable, two days in Europe, three days for the rest of this world.

All photos were taken personally by me and correspond to the exact wrist watch you are placing your bid on.

NO EXTRA COSTS for EU Buyers!

My personal conclusion as a connoisseur and wristwatch lover with over 30 years of experience: the offered 'Bahamas' is a very solid Swiss diver's chronograph in Submariner style; every Limited Edition Swiss wristwatch is a profitable investment: just imagine, there are only 33 pieces produced worldwide!
