Horological Meandering

With the help of a friend well versed in the ways of cameras, I finally managed to procure a few proper scans of this one. I've been wearing it ever since the photo shoot. Never seen another live before. Hope you enjoy the scans. Darren...  

I am hunting one for a long time, now... Yours is in superb condition! The Sicentigraph was the amagnetic comptetitor of the Milgauss, Railmatster, Geophysic, and 3417... Hence my interest on this watch + the fact that it has a killing look! Bravo, my fri... 

Yes, antimagnetic indeed. This was Eberhard's throw into that ring, but they didn't make many of them. I'll take some more scans shortly and post them. Keep up the hunt - look forward to seeing your when you find it. Darren

It is definitely a watch I am hunting, with the Omega CK 2914, the Rolex 1019 ( a 6541 is an unaffordable dream ), and the PP 3417. Yes, rarely seen in the different collectors markets... Damn rare bird. Best, and enjoy yours! Nicolas

and in superbe condition! Matt

I was lucky to find one in this condition. I find myself staring at the dial when I wear it..... Darren

they've made some lovely pieces over the years, but get very little recognition. if Nicolas has been looking for a long time then i'm assuming they are hard to find. do you happen to know over which years it was made ? best Graham

on this one, but it should be from the 1960s I would imagine. I agree with your thoughts regarding Eberhard generally. In their hey day they put out some amazing watches. The vintage Scafografs are wonderful divers, and the Contograf is quite a looker as ... 

Not sure about the bezel, but I like it. At first glance it reminded me of the Explorer 1016. Enjoy it! Thxs. Vte

... which I didn´t know about. It has a look similar to Railmasters, or even Explorers. May I ask if this stippled bezel around dial is the original one of this model? It surprises me a bit this type of decoration in a watch. A wonderful timepiece indeed.... 

In response to your question, the bezel is indeed original to the watch. My understanding is that not all of the Scientigrafs have this bezel, but I can't confirm that. I agree that the watch shares a bit in common with the Explorer. Darren

... Interesting to know some of these watches came with such a decoration, which is really unusual among watches of that time I guess. Glad to know you also get same impression in regards with Explorer image. Well, something in common with Railmasters too...
