Short answer: "about $400" but it comes back like new and with a warranty.

Longer answer: Note that CHF and USD are about 1:1 even,  then look here

My parents were in Switzerland and found you can get MUCH better
prices if you are actually there and know a "local" who can point out
the best deals.

How can watches be OT on a time-nuts list?  Yes the technology of
today is electronic but mechanical time keeping was the center of this
art for centuries.
