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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFischer Extra is one such brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot much is known about Fischer, other than that they produced gauges and instrumentation in the early 1900s. What we \u003cem\u003eDO\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eknow 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eFeaturing 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?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eChronographs 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!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fischer Extra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39385237586007,"sku":"40990093","price":2650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/1255\/products\/AS04127_40990093_FISCHEREXTRA_EXOTICCHRONOGRAPH_3900-8.jpg?v=1630414427","url":"https:\/\/www.analogshift.com\/products\/fischer-extra-exotic-dial-chronograph-as04127","provider":"Analog:Shift","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
