Greetings, everyone!

Just recently I stumbled upon this to my eye very attractive and uncommon Eberhard Tre Tacche chronometer.

After some research I found out, that there is very little information out there about this particular elaboration. On the Italian forum, there is just one thread dedicated to Tre Tacche Eberhard, where 3-4 other examples are mentioned.

Vintage triple date moonphase chronographs have started to grow on me…. They’re really beautiful.
Wondering what the movements are and whether some of them are considered better (aside of course from UG tri-compax).

Thanks and best regards,

Presenting circa 1980 Chronosport Regatta Yachting Chronograph 3 ATM S.S.

I’m land locked in the states and have never been on a Yacht but still interesting to me. I think Breitling was in collaboration with Chronosport during this time period. Has a Valijoux 7770.

By ‘exotic’ I mean a dial with a chequered flag pattern or similar.

I’ve found these and I’m interested to see what else is out there.
So, if you have or know more, please share your knowledge.
