Description
This is an automatically translated text.
the Eberhard Contograf is one of the most beautiful and interesting chronographs of the 20th century. When Eberhard introduced it in the 1960s, it was unlike any other watch on the market. From the company's inception, Eberhard has always tried to think outside the box and be innovative, hence the unusual placement of the date at six o'clock and the date corrector at nine o'clock. Not to mention the roulette-style date wheel. These small touches give the watch such a subtle character. The Contograf is predominantly black with some red details (including the date wheel); the alternating red numbers on the date wheel correspond to the red triangle at 12 o'clock on the bezel and the 50 at two o'clock on the dial. The red "50" in the tachymeter scale indicates 50 km/h, which at the time was the standard speed limit in most European countries. These details contribute to the overall sportiness of the Contograf.The present example features a rare luminous dial complete with Dauphine hands, which is relatively uncommon for this model.The watch also comes with a signed Eberhard bracelet, itself very rare. Because these bracelets are made of bent metal, they tend to stretch, but this one has remained very much intact. Not to mention that this piece also comes with the original warranty and service papers from Eberhard itself. The Contograf is a rarely seen vintage chronograph, and this is an excellent opportunity to have a beautiful and characterful one.
