For Your Safety: A Message to All Buyers
- New Seller Notice: If a seller is new to the Collectors Market with less than 200 posts. While everyone starts somewhere, we strongly recommend using a secure payment method like PayPal Goods & Services or a credit card for purchases for buyer protection.
- Critical Security Alert: Established accounts can be compromised. Always request a custom timestamp (a photo of the watch with a note of your choosing) from any seller, regardless of their transaction history. For the highest security, a live video call is the best way to confirm the seller physically has the watch.
If a seller refuses these basic checks or you see any red flags, stop the transaction immediately.
Remember: A real seller with a genuine watch has nothing to hide and will understand your need for caution.
1980's Ebel Perpetual Calendar 'El Primero' Chronograph 8136901
A rarely seen model, quoted by Ebel brochures to have been ‘on request’ only, is this gorgeous Perpetual Calendar Chronograph powered by the El Primero caliber + in-house perpetual module.
The watch case is in overall good condition showing wear consistent with age, rosey patina developing and the hallmarks/engravings deep, (chose not to polish the case). Case size is circa 40mm, depending where you measure on the interestingly shaped outline. My wrist is just over 16,5cm and I wouldn’t recommend a buyer with a smaller wrist, anything above that measurement you’ll be fine!
The dial is in very good condition, some light ageing can be seen under loupe but with the eye only just a light dot in the 12 o clock sub-dial to note. The handset shows minor ageing but again really only visible under loupe.
The Watch is fitted to its original deployant that has developed a rosey hue and the strap is a ‘new old stock’ lapis shark skin from Ebel. They were famously sold on this material across many of the models at the time. The strap is attached via screws on the underside, customs straps are possible. Personal opinion - crazy amount of value for the complication and with a unique look. If you like things complicated this is a tough one to beat at the price point.
