EBERHARD & CO. INAUGURATES ITS VERY OWN MUSEUM IN THE HISTORIC LA CHAUX-DE-FONDS BUILDING WHERE IT ALL BEGAN.
On 27th June, the 10th anniversary day of the UNESCO declaration, a historic selection of the brand’s heritage has been exhibited for the very first time in a specially created space. Put together with love and passion over decades, the collection consists of timepieces encompassing the entire lifespan of the Eberhard production: from the early pocket watches, testing the inventive skills of the founding fathers, and the first wrist chronographs that would soon be enriched with prestigious complications, to minuscule and elegant women’s timepieces and other men’s models characterised by a sporty style and high technicality, like the diving watches from the 1950s, all demonstrating constant evolution and ending in models from the most recent collections and a preview of the new and exclusive calibre EB140. The numerous patents registered by Eberhard & Co. throughout its long history are the cornerstones of this exhibition that will not fail to amaze and astonish even the most demanding visitors and connoisseurs.
The highlight of the inauguration day has been another surprise, really appreciated by the inhabitants of the town: the historic eagle – placed on the top of the building by Georges-Lucien Eberhard – now once again reigns over avenue Léopold-Robert, after undergoing a long restoration process - supported by Eberhard & Co. - to return it to its original glory.
