Eberhard Extra-Fort Racing Chrono

Dedalus · Jun 5, 2015

Hello to all,
So I am somewhat taken with this Eberhard chrono I stumbled across, but I am finding info. on the company very, very hard to come by. Aside from the scant information available on their website and on Wikipedia, are there any other resources the resourceful members of OF can guide me towards? 😀

Eh, figured it was a long shot. 😀

Unfortunately I am no expert in Eberhard watches but quite a few people (myself included) seem to think that they made some of the nicest chronograph movements, period. I am a fan.

Well, found a little info. online. This thread, posted by OF member Noodia on another forum, is probably the most useful resource I've found thus far:

Sorry I can't help with the watch in question, but that is a great article you've dug up. Thanks for that!!

Eberhard is a well-known brand, and some references are quite collectible. Not familiar with this particular one, but that case and racing dial configuration are likely late '60's early '70s. I've seen similar dials from Vulcain and Heuer.
