Eberhard & Co. - 31022/10 - Men - 1998

Eberhard & Co. - Champion Chronograph "Lemania 5100" - Ref. 31022 CA - Men / Unisex - 1990-1999

Splendid and iconic automatic chronograph Eberhard & Co. Champion, reference 31022 CA (31022/10), dating from the 1990s. A piece of great collector interest, featuring a stunning configuration with a black "Reverse Panda" dial with three white/silver counters in contrast, enhanced by elegant gold details.
The heart of this timepiece is the legendary self-winding mechanical movement Lemania 5100, renowned for its military robustness and the iconic central chronograph minute function.
The watch comes in an exceptionally rich set, ideal for collectors, including the original wooden box, period tag (with the original price in Lire of L. 2,025,000), additional bracelet links, and a very rare original Eberhard replacement sub-dial in burgundy/burgundy-gold with its components.
Condition and recent servicing
The watch has just undergone a complete, documented service (dated 18/03/2026), visible in the attached photos.
Mechanics: It runs perfectly in all functions (time, date setting, and chronograph reset).
Work performed: During the service, the gaskets were replaced and a new crystal installed.
Glass note: The installed glass is made of exalite/plexiglass (plastic), faithful to the original specifications of the era. Due to the material’s intrinsic delicacy, the glass has unfortunately suffered a few light superficial scratches from use after the intervention, visible in side-light (easily polishable with Polywatch if desired by the future buyer).
