Established in 1887 in La Chaux-de-Fonds by Georges Eberhard, Eberhard & Co. has carved a unique place for itself in the watch industry with its innovative, technically advanced chronographs. Though predominantly recognized amongst Italian collectors and some watch enthusiasts for its Chrono 4 model, Eberhard’s chronograph legacy remains mostly unexplored by a vast audience.
In a bid to fill this gap, Eberhard & Co. launched the 1887 collection. Drawing design inspiration from the brand’s museum showcasing historical chronographs, the collection is a fantastic tribute to Eberhad’s legacy. Amongst the standouts in this collection is the Chronograph 1887 Limited Edition – a compelling flyback chronograph that combines a retro-inspired design, rooted in the 1930s, with a contemporary case size and manual-winding movement.
The Mini, an enduring symbol in the world of automobiles, has undoubtedly etched its name in history. A name that resonates with everyone familiar with cars, its adorable compact design has charmed millions and sparked a revolution on the roadways. Notorious in car exhibitions and vintage racing, the Mini solidified its motoring legacy winning the 1964 Monte Carlo rally with Paddy Hopkirk at the helm.
Today, its popularity remains, with a booming community of loyal followers who constantly care for, restore, or even modify the classic Mini. With the resurgence of ‘restomods’, where vintage models are revamped with comfortable modern functionality, the fascination for this vehicle has scaled new heights. One fresh restoration prepared to steal hearts is the Wood & Pickett Mini, a stroke of genius by the eminent Ian Callum Design.
