EBERHARD & Co. Parechoc / 1940s Staybrite Steel, In-House Manual

— Holding the hours that have been marked —

Vintage that still pulses quietly across the decades.

Founded in 1887 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Eberhard & Co. is a distinguished house that has set down many technical advances.

The jet-black dial carries fine circular decoration like guilloché engraving, and classical gold indexes and vivid blued steel hands stand out against it.

— Military dignity, carrying the air of its period —

"PARECHOC" is marked low on the dial: evidence of a shock-protection system that was innovative at the time.

The caseback is struck "ACIER STAYBRITE" — an early premium stainless steel with excellent corrosion resistance, used in fine watches of the 1930s and 40s.

The design carries a military flavour, yet it adds a refined individuality to dressier clothes as well.

A jet-black dial set off by fine circular decoration. The PARECHOC shock system and premium STAYBRITE steel. An in-house manual movement with beautiful perlage. A piece carrying the history and dignity of the distinguished house of Eberhard.

— A craftsman's hand, and memory, behind the caseback —

Open the caseback and beautiful perlage decoration spreads out.

The manual-wind movement, struck with the firm's own name, still keeps a sure beat.

The small hand-scratched marks left inside the caseback are evidence of the care successive watchmakers took over it.

— The weight of history, and the luxury of passing it on —

A presence that only a watch of more than half a century can give off.

A piece filled with the character the years have brought and the functional beauty its makers were after.

Enjoy at your own wrist the appeal of a precious vintage timepiece you will meet only once.
