Historical Background


The reference 36108 belongs to Eberhard & Co.’s “Replica” collection, introduced to revive the brand’s iconic chronographs from the 1930s and 1940s. These models were not simple reissues, but carefully executed recreations that preserved the original proportions, dial complexity, and functionality of early pilot and medical chronographs.


Featuring traditional multi-scale dials such as tachymeter and telemeter, along with proven Swiss calibers like the Lemania 1872, the 36108 embodies the transition between true vintage watchmaking and modern reliability—making it a highly appealing piece for collectors who value authenticity and historical design.
