Specialist note

While the Rolex Submariner and Omega Seamaster were the two more well-known dive watches of the 1960s, there were many others producing pieces for service below the waves such as Blancpain and their Fifty Fathoms. The watch offered here, the Eberhard Scafograph, is perhaps more obscure still but no less versatile, and bears a strike resemblance to the Omega Seamaster, due to the fact that it shares the same case with twisted lugs and shouldered crown.
