This is a special edition of the “Tazio Nuvolari”, the iconic chronograph watch series from Eberhard & Co. that celebrates the legendary Tazio Nuvolari, greatest car-racing myth of all times.
The watch takes inspiration from the vintage car dashboard instruments that were essentially designed to give optimum performance and legibility and to resist the punishments of weather and vibration.

So the Tazio Nuvolari chronograph was duly devised to live up to the same criteria. Readability is optimised by the generously sized inset dials, and the luminescent Arabic numerals and minute and hour hands are perfectly legible even in the darkness. The black dial and the antiglare sapphire glass combine to facilitate recognition of the readings and quick checks of the tachometer.
The eight screws securing the caseback and the screwed-in crown render the timepiece perfectly waterproof while also affording maximum protection to its sophisticated movement and a balance wheel made from a special Glucydur alloy.
The caseback is transparent to reveal the beauty of the movement with its high-grade embellishments and the rotor with its equally as subtle engravings depicting a stylised 18 ct. gold replica of that Alfa Romeo Tipo C which the great Nivola used to drive to his impressive victories.
Water-resistant down to 30 m., made of stainless steel, with a unique dial in black, scale engravings on the bezel denoting miles, rosebud finish.
Also available in Ø 43 mm.
