Eberhard & Co., official timekeeper of the 2026 Genoa International Boat Show (October 1-6), has unveiled the Scafograf 200 MCMLIX Bronze Edition, a special version of the new diving watch line launched earlier this year at Watches and Wonders Geneva.
For the fifth consecutive year, Eberhard & Co. presented a new creation at the show.
The new model combines a stainless steel case with a bronze bezel and crown, introducing the gradual patina of the material into the design of a collection rooted in the brand’s maritime history.
The relationship between Eberhard & Co. and the world of the sea dates back to the 1930s, when officers of the Italian Royal Navy received chronographs from the Maison. The Scafograf collection itself dates to 1959 and has since evolved through different models and technical configurations.
The Scafograf 200 MCMLIX Bronze Edition retains the 39 mm case of the existing collection, with a thickness of 12.30 mm and 19 mm lug width.
The stainless steel case has a satin finish with polished profiles and is topped by a domed sapphire crystal with an internal anti-reflective treatment.
Water resistance is rated at 200 metres / 660 feet, backed by professional diving specifications that include a screw-down crown and an automatic helium escape valve positioned at 9 o’clock.
Bronze is used for both the unidirectional rotating bezel and the screw-down crown. The bezel carries a black ceramic insert with bronze-coloured details and vintage luminescence applied to the first quarter of the minute scale.
The sexagesimal graduation is intended for measuring elapsed diving time, while the bronze crown is customised with a raised “E”.
The black dial follows the graphic language of the Scafograf 200 MCMLIX, with applied round and triangular indexes outlined in polished bronze-coloured profiles.
Vintage luminescence is applied to the indexes and hands, while a laser-engraved peripheral minute scale surrounds the dial.
The hour hand retains the triangular tip associated with the original 1959 Scafograf, while the baton-style minute hand and central seconds hand complete the display. The seconds hand incorporates a luminous circular element.
The movement is a Swiss self-winding movement operating at a frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour) and offering a power reserve of approximately 40 hours.
The Scafograf 200 MCMLIX Bronze Edition is offered in three configurations. The first is a black water-resistant leather strap with a vintage appearance and bronze-coloured stitching near the lugs, secured by a custom Eberhard & Co. steel buckle. An optional DÉCLIC deployant clasp is also available.
The second pairs the watch with a woven Milanese-style steel mesh bracelet fitted with a two-push-button 2CLICK deployant clasp.
A third option uses uses Eberhard & Co.’s Chassis satin-finished steel bracelet with polished profiles and the same 2CLICK clasp.
The screw-fixed stainless steel case back is customised with a starfish rendered in 5N gold-coloured PVD, the symbol associated with the Scafograf collection.
The Eberhard & Co. Scafograf 200 MCMLIX Bronze Edition, ref. 41147, is presented at the 2026 Genoa International Boat Show. The price has yet to be confirmed. eberhard-co-watches.ch
