    There is a pretty Eberhard & Co chronograph on Chrono24 that I almost pulled the trigger on. Then I noticed a number of odd things on the movement...

    I'm guessing that the balance wheel & cock is a transplant? Then again, I'm having a hard time finding a picture of another 325-4? movement to look at, so the whole thing may be wrong. It also seem to be missing two screws. Heck looking at other movements the screw missing at the 10:30 position seems have been holding a spring that on this one is mounted at the 9:30 position.

    I'm not familiar with Eberhard movements so your input would be appreciated.

    At the very least, I would expect acknowledgment of the time and expertise someone offers in order to answer your question. Common courtesy applies even on a forum.

    The face of this watch is quite something, but unfortunately I'm also having a hard time finding another face like it. Can third be a completely made up piece?

    i cant be of tech help,(movement) but find it odd/hard to believe that a company prints a tach scale twice on the same watch... i'd walk no need to import problems

    If you look again you'll see there is only one "tach scale" (a tachymetre) the other is a telemetre scale!:oops:

    if you look again, you see a tachymeter scale, a telemetre scale and another tachymeter scale ... just look for "120" around the 6 o'clock position ;-)

    cheers
