Eberhard & Co. Scafograf 200 MCMLIX: underwater heritage

Inspired by the original 1959 model, the new Scafograf retains its professional diving vocation within a compact 39mm case, enhanced by a dial with strong visual impact.

T

he underwater heritage of the Scafograf runs deep in the history of the collection, dating back to 1959 when, as the story goes, Maurice Eberhard would take his young nephew to the shores of Lake Neuchâtel to personally test the resilience of the first Scafograf 100 – immersing it in the water himself before submitting it to the official trials that would certify its performance.

The triangular indices and the pointed tip of the hour hand – itself composed of three triangles – have remained distinctive elements of the collection since its very beginning: born from precise functional requirements, they ensure immediate legibility even in low-visibility conditions and allow for optimal application of luminescent material. Technical features that, over time, have also acquired aesthetic value, combining with particularly refined finishes while never compromising the watch’s professional character, as evidenced by the presence of the automatic helium escape valve, essential for deep diving.

The watch is available in four versions: black dial with silver-toned minute track featuring circular satin finishing and black ceramic bezel; black dégradé dial, also paired with a black bezel; blue dial with silver-toned minute track featuring circular satin finishing and blue ceramic bezel; and blue dégradé dial, combined with a blue bezel. On the screw-down caseback, a finely engraved starfish recalls the historic emblem of the Scafograf collection.

A novelty for the brand, the new polished steel Milanese mesh bracelet – widely used between the 1950s and 1970s as an elegant alternative to traditional sports bracelets – combines refined aesthetics with exceptional wearing comfort. Once again, Eberhard & Co. has paid close attention to its execution, personalising it with the 2CLICK® clasp and ensuring continuity of the weave even across the adjustable links.
