Designed as a tool watch, it was aimed at a sportive audience but some models were also suitable for more formal occasions.

It retains all its original and intact luminous and have beautiful and very distinctive hands that are turning from a yellow color to a darker grey.

Eberhard Scafograph 100. One picture.
A picture I took a while ago, from Blomman's collection.
So close and so different to and from the Omega Seamaster 300 CK 2913.
I always loved that watch, but never fell on one.
Something to grab for any serious vintage diving watch collection, for sure.
Enjoy,
Nicolas

Beautiful watch and great photo. Congrats to Blomman its lucky owner...
... I love the dial/hands of this old diver. I regret never seen one here in my land, and judging for the info given by Bill, its price level is rocketing to the sky.
What´s happening to our "sport"? Things look like going crazy if we look at the figures obtained during last auctions.
Yes dear Blomman, this one deserves more time on your wrist! Keep enjoying my friend!
All the best, Abel.
