Dear all, I would like to share with you the joy of having found a rare watch that I have been hunting, shall we say fishing for some time: the Eberhard Scafograf 200 Ref 11536 first generation from 1961. As I said above this is a piece I have been after ...
You have one of my favorite collections amongst our Purist pals. I always enjoy seeing your divers and this latest Eberhard is no exception. There is something very romantic and adventurous about dive watches. Even though most divers nowadays never see an...
