The home team was unable to take full advantage of their chances during the first half, but the war turned decisively in their favor during the opening animated the second 45 minutes.
Switzerland were reduced to 10 men after 54 minutes when Tottenham former defender Reto Ziegler was shown a straight red card for having raised his studs in a tackle on Chris Gunter, and a foul on the same player by Timm Klose six minutes later Ramsey allowed slot fifth international goal from the penalty spot.
Bale made sure of victory as he ran on a pass from Steve Morison to beat Diego Benaglio for a first goal for Wales and the sides met in Basel a year ago.
Wales boss Gary Speed had given Swansea midfielder Joe Allen International starting point in his homeland with Craig Bellamy returning from suspension.
Inclusion of Allen, and fellow club of Ashley Williams and Neil Taylor, gave three players Swansea in Wales a starting lineup for the first time since 1982.
Switzerland gave a debut to midfielder Fabian Frei Basel Klose was associated with the defense of Steve von Bergen after Philippe Senderos was Fulham's late withdrawal.
And the first contribution of Cesena defender Von Bergen was to earn a yellow card for a tackle poor Morison.
Klose gave an unnecessary corner and almost proved costly, but Darcy Blake missed a header after being chosen by Bellamy.
Although the opportunity for visitors, with Granite Xhaka Xherdan Shaqiri and looking alive, had much the better of the opening exchanges, seeking security of tenure and the hunger for Wales of the ball.
But the hosts seemed a threat to break with the pace of Bale and Bellamy proving a threat.
Bellamy was off target with two efforts from the edge of the box before the first contact with the poor means Ramsey could not choose a man from Liverpool in acres of space in the Swiss box.
Wales best chance yet reached the 37 minutes Bale ball in the box chosen Morison, who beat Klose experts, but saw his shot deflected over the crossbar by Benaglio.
Switzerland responded with his best effort as a unit under the pattern flashed just wide Gokhan Inler with a chain post blind Wayne Hennessey.
Frei saw his effort on target Hitzfeld diverted much of the strong party is over.
The Swiss thought they had grabbed the opener just five minutes after the restart from the free throw Shaqiri was included in the Eren Derdiyok, but the Bayer Leverkusen forward was ruled to have been offside.
It was then that in turn hosts feel hard done by Bale as he seemed to be felled by Klose as he raced into the box, but appeals were waved by the referee Bjorn Kuipers.
The Dutch official was again the center of attention in the 54 minutes, as demonstrated by Ziegler straight red card after the left side, had entered a challenge to show their stallion Gunter.
Wales soon had another penalty shout turned away from the resulting free kick and Blake seemed to be included in what we fought to get Bale inswinging delivery.
But it proved third time lucky on the hour mark as a clumsy challenge saw Gunter Klose Kuipers point to the place and under Ramsey effort could not be maintained by Benaglio.
And victory was sealed on 71 minutes as Morison passes between two flat-footed defenders to find space Bale. The striker ran on goal and he was right when he left-footed shot past Benaglio.
