    As I live in France where I mostly source my vintage watches, it is not surprising that I ended up finding few "Fab. Suisse"

    Heuer Carrera

    Hugex chronograph

    Here are 3 Jaeger-Lecoultre, with the longer "Fabriqué en Suisse"

    First a reverso

    Then, a nice calendar watch

    And the Futurematic

    To continue, here comes a couple of Juvenia.

    First a chronograph powered by the Venus 140

    And the famous Arithmo
    Juvenia Fab Suisse.JPG

    Some Movado were also marked "Fab Suisse", like this rare chronomètre produced in the late 30s

    Not to forget Omega, starting with the Centenary

    Then the Marine

    Last but not least an Automatic Seamaster Chronometre from 1953

    To conclude, a simple Tissot Marine Standard, the only one I haven't found in France ... but here on OmegaForums!

    @dougiedude Glad that you replied to my "provocation" that way... Lovely family, thanks for sharing !

    A lot of outstanding watches in this thread... Special mention to @cristos71 and this 352 (kind-of-Seamaster Grail :rolleyes:)...

    To remain in St-Imier, the wear of the day : Longines MN 5774.jpg

    Thank you.

    I have a good feeling we’ve only seen the ‘tip of the iceberg’ for these beauties!

    This one was delivered to Paris in 1958.

    New here - recently picked up an Omega (my first), and after some checks of the buyer's pictures along with a snooping-around of the forums, I am patiently waiting for this to be delivered! A Ref 800.26.5 with a Cal 26.5 (c. 1926) beating inside! Apart from a small hairline on the enamel/porcelain dial, it is in fantastic condition, with a fully spelt "Importé de Suisse" below and hallmarked silver case! Can't wait!

    This came back from service today, recent new arrival

    just waiting for the original french handmade open ended 1940’s crocodile bands I’ve bought to arrive and finish it off! Alongside my sector dial it’s one the nicest RG’s I’ve seen

    more pics to follow with the original crocodile box and alligator band when it lands
