Eberhard Revives The 1960s Contograf In Tribute To Dallara
Eberhard & Co. has introduced a remarkable revival of its iconic 1960s Contograf chronograph, this time as a limited-edition homage to Dallara, the prestigious Italian design and engineering firm celebrated for its expertise in racing and high-performance cars. This reimagined timepiece merges vintage charm with modern sophistication, embodying the spirit of innovation that defines both Eberhard & Co. and Dallara.
The watch boasts a meticulously crafted stainless steel case measuring 42mm in diameter and 14.70mm in thickness, featuring a striking satin finish complemented by polished bevels. Its domed sapphire crystal provides durability and clarity, while the unidirectional 12-hour bezel with a black ceramic insert enhances functionality. Attention to detail extends to the fluted crown engraved with Eberhard’s signature “E,” positioned at 3 o’clock and flanked by two chronograph pushers. The solid screw-down case back, engraved with the “Tribute to Contograf – 1960s,” ensures water resistance up to 50 meters.
A black sunray dial serves as the centerpiece of this exceptional chronograph, adorned with two yellow subdials. The 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock and the running seconds at 9 o’clock reflect Dallara’s signature colors, while the brand’s logo is positioned above the white date window at 6 o’clock, which features striking red numerals. Applied indexes and Dauphine hands filled with luminescent material provide excellent readability, even in low light. A tachymeter inner scale with a red 50km/h marker complements the chronograph’s center seconds hand, emphasizing precision and performance.
Powering this limited-edition Contograf is a reliable automatic movement, although specific details remain undisclosed. The watch is paired with a three-link stainless steel bracelet featuring a brushed and satin finish, secured by a folding clasp, adding both style and comfort.
Limited to just 50 pieces, this exclusive Contograf is available solely to Dallara staff and owners of the Dallara Stradale, underscoring its rarity and desirability. This revival of the 1960s classic pays tribute to the enduring legacy of both Eberhard & Co. and Dallara, making it a coveted piece for enthusiasts of fine watchmaking and automotive excellence.
