On the occasion of the prestigious international show Baselworld 2012, Eberhard & Co. presents a preview of a special model celebrating its 125 years:

Extra-fort Roue à Colonnes Grande Date 125ème Anniversaire.

An exclusive model produced in limited edition - 500 pieces for the steel version and 125 for the precious gold edition - to mark this important event, thus reaffirming the Brand’s ability to passionately and consistently pursue its calling for innovation, while preserving its personality and independence.

The technical preciousness of Extra-fort Roue à Colonnes Grande Date 125ème Anniversaire resides in the column-wheel that controls the chronographic functions of the mechanical automatic movement, perfectly matching the aesthetic refinement of the model.

With its elegant and harmonious lines and a 41 mm case proposed with a silvery or black dial, the new Extra-fort is distinguished by Arabic numerals at 1, 2 and 5 o’clock that stand out against the dial, symbolizing the 125 years of illustrious tradition and a growing passion for the universe of “Time”. To complete the celebrative pattern, an Eberhard & Co. logo as been applied on the dial. Waterproof to 30 metres in the gold version and 50 metres in the steel one, with a see-through sapphire glass case-back that reveals a particularly detailed and personalized movement, Extra-fort 125ème Anniversaire is available with a crocodile strap or a Chalin steel bracelet, both equipped with the deployment clasp Déclic (Patented).

In 125 years, the Maison never stopped to look ahead, supported by the strength of its history, with a conquering spirit that has given life to countless revolutionary creations.
