Fischer Extra 'Exotic' Dial Chronograph

Why We Love It

There is no doubt that interesting chronographs hold a special place in the hearts of many collectors.

So many interesting watch brands have been lost to time. From the well-known to the completely unrecognizable, any number of Swiss labels failed to survive the Quartz Crisis of the 1970s, folding completely or being rolled up into conglomerates that pillaged their stores of parts.

Fischer Extra is one such brand.

Not much is known about Fischer, other than that they produced gauges and instrumentation in the early 1900s. What we DO know is that this watch - a stainless steel chronograph dating from the early 1970s - was produced under contract as a private label by a larger company, likely Heuer, using top-grade components.

Featuring a 37mm stainless steel cushion case with a domed acrylic crystal, a hand-cranking Valjoux chronograph movement, and a fantastic fluorescent exotic dial with both pulsometer and tachymeter scales and a matching 'cigarette' handset, this watch shapes up to be a very well rounded and appealing timepiece that packs a punch... Dare we say a knockout?

Chronographs such as this one are fun and wonderful timepieces, and there's no telling if and when one of these will surface again, so don't wait!
