This is a description of a timepiece from the 1940s. It's an Éberhard watch featuring the Cal.16 line, housed in an 18K yellow gold case with a step design and a silver snail dial. The Cal.16 line comes with Éberhard's unique hacking function. The chronograph functions (start, stop, reset) are controlled by buttons at the 2 o'clock position, while what appears to be a button at the 4 o'clock position is actually a slide mechanism. When slid upwards during chronograph operation, it activates the hacking mechanism. The watch boasts a commanding presence with its oversized 40mm case and intricate dial design, including telemeter and snail tachymeter scales, surpassing other brands of the same era. Its high quality and innovative design showcase its uniqueness splendidly. The solid 18K gold oversized case adds to its allure with a sense of weightiness unique to its size.
