It goes well with my Great White...now I feel I need the blue wave dial to complete the trifecta!
Sorry for the lousy pic:

Some of the Vantage dials are marked SWISS, and others without?
Well mine is an A Schild movement shared with the Tudor Alarms. So it’s a Swiss movement. I’ve confirmed mine from a Hamilton/ Vantage catalog. So the movement is Swiss I’m not sure about assembly of that piece or the legal requirements in 72.

There is no question that Hamilton owned and sold Vantage watches as a “low end” brand at that point.

Great piece! Love the sunburst dial. Awesome indices and numerals. Hard to believe these where low end pieces. The furniture and proportions are better then a lot of more expensive watches of the period. They all had decent movements too.
