In addition, we request that sellers linking to online auctions or listings offer some benefit or accomodation to ChronoTrader readers (for example, some discount or an undertaking to end an auction early, to keep a watch "in the family").

For sale is a NOS 1965 Favre Leuba Bivouac manual winding watch with Altimeter function - first production run wristwatch with that feature in the world.
Correct case, flush crystal, hands, dial & bezel which are all flawless. Never polished, reworked, relumed or reassembled.
Only example so far to be seen in the net with the correct steel bracelet and clasp without any wear. NOS throughout. Runs perfect.
This was the watch used by the alpinists first climbing the north side of the Matterhorn and 1960s polar expeditions due to measuring the drop
of air pressure warning them that blizzards will arise.
Due to the air pressure chamber inside the watch is NOT waterproof at all - that´s perhaps why so few survived.
Located in germany & can be shipped with insurance WW without any problems - local pick-up would be fine.
I´d prefer a bank transfer vs. PayPal as they just profit 4% without any real service outside of eBay but I´d accept it.
Lots of references from intl. watch sites and previous sales/buys.
Price is 2900 Euro incl. WW insured & tracked transportation - PayPal plus 4%. 2700 Euro for a face-to-face deal in western germany.
If you need further info or more detailed pictures - just ask.
