Founded at La Chaux-de-Fonds in 1887, the Maison Suisse d’Horlogerie Eberhard & Co. does not only look back to a history of well over 100 years; its name has also stood its ground ever since as a synonym for tradition, commitment and innovation. The success of its brand name has pervaded the entire 20th century like a thin red line. 1919 saw the arrival of the most advanced wristwatch chronograph of its time, 1930 gave birth to the first automatic watch, and in 1935 the company issued a then totally unprecedented chronograph with two pushbuttons. 1939 saw the introduction of the "Rattrapante" chronograph to be followed by the Extra-fort chronograph in the '50s and the introduction of simultaneous date setting in the '60s. Collectors could easily continue the list by quoting any number of fascinating new mechanism and unique shapes, all of which have marked a long epoch in the art of watchmaking.
