FS: Ultra-rare Bucherer / Lemania gray dial chronograph - $4,499

In the early-70's, Bucherer had Lemania create a watch that they could sell in their stores under their own name.

As a result, Lemania used the exact same case they used for their military chronographs: the legendary "Viggen" made for the Swedish Air Force (SwAF) and the 1872-powered model made for the South African Air Force (SAAF).

The movement, a Lemania 3872, is essentially an Omega 861 with two registers and a date, and is also extremely rare.

This particular example features a gray dial with tachymetre and applied hour indices. The case is in very good condition and has not been over-polished. The original crown and pushers are also very nice.

I'm asking $4,499 with free shipping within the US. International buyers please add $50. Payment must be made via PayPal.

Please see the pictures below and let me know if you have any questions.
