When I just started out liking and looking at (serious) mechanical watches, was one of the brands that I really liked. Especially their chronograph with Zenith El Primero movement was particularly interesting, easy to recognize as these models have a snap-on case back. Over the years, the movements changed (from Zenith to Ebel’s in-house caliber 137) but the characteristic case shape with the 5 screws and nice satin finish stayed. Although I wouldn’t mind having the Ebel chronograph with El Primero movement (Ebel caliber 134 based on Zenith’s caliber 400) – actually the same one as Don Johnson was wearing in Miami Vice – the new 1911 BTR Chronograph models are more up-to-date and just as interesting. More about the current Ebel 1911 Chronograph later on in this article. Let’s talk some history first.As you can see in the picture above, Don Johnson is wearing the Ebel chronograph in stainless steel/gold combination. A perfect fit to his Miami outfit (including an impressive mullet) in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Below, you see the exact same version of his watch, on a leather strap.This watch, with the highly sought-after Zenith El Primero movement is one of these watches you will rarely see in the flesh. While Ebel is also (or mostly?) popular by the non watch collectors for being ‘a good’ watch for a reasonable price, I guess that people who bought this watch back in the day probably didn’t even know about the superb chronograph movement ticking inside. You can snap these watches for approximately 1500 euro from eBay or . Below you’ll see a close-up picture of the column wheel chronograph movement, Ebel caliber 134.Fast forward to 2006, 20 years after the first 1911, Ebel introduces a new line-up of 1911 sports watches by the name of 1911 BTR. The automatic chronograph caliber 134 had already been replaced by their own in-house caliber 137. Ebel understood it was time to upgrade the rather classic looking chronograph line-up and their design team came up with a more masculine sports watch, with a larger hexagonal case, measuring a whopping 44.5 mm in diameter.As you can see on the picture above, unmistakeably Ebel, and definitely wearable for the watch aficionado of now. The black rubber elements like the bezel, pusher and crowns really emphasize the new game Ebel joined. A serious competitor for other brands with in-house chronograph movements? In specifications and design? Yes! However, just like the old Ebel chronographs, how come I rarely see these 1911 BTR beauties in the flesh? These 1911 BTR Chronograph models start at 5100 euro () and although that’s serious money, it is a very fair price for a time piece with an in-house chronograph movement.In my opinion, an even more interesting chronograph is their 1911 BTR Chronograph with caliber 139 movement. The minute and hour totalizer are a bit different from the ordinary chronograph lay-out, the minute totalizer is located at 12 o’clock, indicating the current minute on a 0 – 30 scale. Below, the totalizer at 6 o’clock points at the current hour. When the first 30 minutes of an hour elapsed, the totalizer at 12 o’clock will indicate so.The tachymeter scale is also more visible on this model. One could say that this caliber 139 version is more bold than the regular BTR 1911 caliber 137 chronograph. of this particular model, with alligator strap, is 5990 Euro. All BTR movements are COSC certified, which means they have been regulated and tested to be as accurate as -4 / +6 seconds per day.Besides the 1911 BTR, Ebel also has a model called the Tekton. Although not part of the BTR line-up, I thought I at least mention these models. In the light of the current 2010 football World Championships in South-Africa, I’ll focus on their football line-up. Ebel introduced a number of specials in their Tekton series, for FC Bayern-Munich, Arsenal, Ajax, Real Madrid, Olympique Lyonnais and Rangers. Using caliber 245, the user of this watch uses the 45 minute totalizer at 12 o’clock position to measure the time of a certain half and uses the hour totalizer at 6 o’clock to count the number of? ‘game halfs’. Each of these club specials are only being made in limited editions (starting with 150 pieces for Ajax and 500 pieces for Real Madrid) and are there to point out the connection between Ebel and football, which they have been sponsoring since the early 1980s. Ebel launched a dedicated which is worth checking out for fans of either of the mentioned clubs. Pictured below is the Ajax special of 150 pieces. The Tekton watches have a 9900 Euro price tag.Fan of the most popular game in the world or not, Ebel is an interesting brand and with the BTR and Tekton they should be considered a serious player in the world of watches and especially of chronographs. It is about time that Ebel will get its own forum on the big watch portals on the internet and being recognized amongst collectors and aficionados of fine time pieces.Visit the for more information and visit their to see what they are doing right now.

Watch �C *** was considered by many to be an area dominated only by men; but Ebel wanted to prove the contrary by mixing up the twin pillars of masculine and feminine values and qualities. The name of the brand simbolizes an acronim of the two settlers of this company: Eugene Blum and Et Levy. From the very beginning the two shared their tasks: Eugene administrated the technical side of the trademark, while Alice made sure that from an aesthetically point of view elegance and sensuality won`t miss. The way in which the two managed to blend the technical excellence with a distinctive design assured an immediate and reknown success. Continuing upon its success with Tekton chronograph for English team as Arsenal or German team as Bayern Munich, Ebel, the Swiss watchmaker made a new series of watches which will have a high-impact on the 21st century. The Ebel 1911 Tekton AFC Ajax Automatic Chronograph is the most wanted watch these days. This model will have a very great impact on fans of the Dutch football club AFC Ajax who wanted to have one of the limited edition watch. The first 15 pieces will be offered in an exclusive pre-release by Dutch retailer Gassan Diamonds. The chassis of the watch measures 48.50 mm in diameter and is brushed-up with stainless steel. The hexagonal jewel of watch is crafted from black gum and emphasis the sophisticated nature of the multi-level silver dial witch makes this watch to be unexempled in the world. The sapphire crystal transparent case back gives the watch a fineness which can be admired by everyone who knows to make the difference between this Ebel 1911 Tekton and another watch which may be considered beautiful but which doesn`t accomplish such numerous functions as Ebel 1911 Tekton AFC Ajax Automatic Chronograph watch has. The exclusive automatic chronograph caliber cater exactness timekeeping ensured by famous COSC chronometer certification.

The Ebel 1911 Tekton AFC Ajax Chronograph watch has a mechanism separated for measuring the 45 minute half-times of the match and the extra times when it`s necessarily. The circular disc noticeable at 6 o`clock on the dial is answerable for measuring elapsed hours, in concordance with the 45 �C minute periods. With the passing of the time, Ebel has managed to prove that watch �C *** can be an area where men and women can develop new stilish watches that combine both exquisite feminine jewelry models with refined men`s timepieces.Ebel 1911 Tekton AFC Ajax Pictures Gallery
