Eberhard Scafograph / Eterna Kontiki. 2 outsiders in the vintage diving watch world.
The Eberhard Scafograph:
The Eterna Kontiki:
Funny how they look very close. Ok, the case is different. While the Eberhard case is similar to the Omega CK 2913, the Eterna has the lyre lugs which we can find on the the later Omega Seamaster 165 024.
The dial shows these big triangle indexes at 3 / 6 / 9 / 12, while the other indexes are round or or baton.
Two outsiders, but two very interesting and appealing vintage diving watches, which are not discussed as often as they deserve to be.
Thanks to Blomman for letting me take these pictures of them.
Best,
Nicolas

Very nice indeed....
My preference would be for the Scafograph. The hands are more suited for diving in my opinion and they look very cool;) Cheers Francois
Agreed on the hands. More my taste on the Scafograph.
But I find the Eterna very sensual! Best, Nicolas
Thank you for these shots, Nicolas! :)
Two very charming early divers! :) Interesting parallels about the cases. Will come back on that tonight... Best Blomman
About the case comparison...
Yes agree on the Eberhard Scafograf vs Omega 2913 regarding the shape seen from above. But, the Scafograf has an facet an extra that goes along the side from lug to lug, while the 2913 do not. This extra facet the Eterna KonTiki and the Omega 165 024 both...
It doesn't look like EPSA....
So the chances for HF are good... Yes, let's hope someone can help us here! Best Blomman
Look, the case of the JLC Deep Sea Alarm comes from HF and is sot signed HF inside the
Case back. So, well, chances are pretty good... Best, Nicolas
Yes, interesting indeed...
and I was seduced by the early Scafograph some time ago. It was Eberhard's first dive watch, and there were reportedly only 200 produced! It is easily distinguished from the second generation Eberhard 200 as the latter has a typical dive watch bezel. Inte...
Superb, Tony. Thanks a lot for showing us the evolutions!
I damn love the dial on your second picture. The patina, they way it turned. Wow! Best, Nicolas
Yours is in stunning condition, Tony!
I really need to find a correct seconds hand... Great documents! I need to scan and write a post about the once I have... Best Blomman
Both very cool divers....
I wear my Scafograf 200 quite often, and never tire of it. It was my "grail" diver for many years, and it took all of those years to find one. Thanks for posting these. Darren ...
Funny to see how the insert is Rolex-ish . ;)
Thanks for adding yours, Darren. All the best, Nicolas
Another beauty! :)
The Scientigraf has been on my list for many years now... Best Blomman
