Press release

Maison Eberhard & Co. confirms the authentic and multi-faceted character of the Gilda collection which, on the occasion of the prestigious Baselworld 2012 International Watch and Jewellery Show, is on display in many precious colours.

Eberhard & Co. is celebrating and interpreting the sophistication and entrepreneurial qualities of today's woman, by proposing Gilda in new versions, embellished with diamonds, sapphires, rubies and black brilliants. Soft, harmonious contours, numbers that become jewels and bezels that dazzle with brilliants. A sparkling display of elegance to be enjoyed.

Modern steel is enrobed in the fascination of fine details and the much sought after shapes that combine with the fresh and determined impact of the Chéri® bracelet and the energy of the coloured alligator straps, with their “E&CO” monogrammed buckles.

Powered by a quartz movement, protected by a round, domed, anti-reflection, sapphire crystal, a gleaming case back secured by 4 concealed screws and softened by a delicate floral motif, roman numerals and elongated, leaf-shaped hands - Gilda expresses the enchanting femininity of the Eberhard & Co. woman.

 

For Valentine's Day Eberhard & Co. dresses Gilda in precious stones

A cascade of diamonds, rubies and sapphires to celebrate the most romantic of events.  For Valentine's day Eberhard & Co., in its 125th anniversary, pays tribute to women with two refined versions of Gilda dressed in precious stones, offering a new interpretation of elegance and style. Smooth and harmonic lines that recall the sinuous contours of flowers, as the blue and red of sapphires and rubies turn the ladies timepiece of the Bienne Maison into an authentic jewel.

The Floral version of Gilda presents a delicate blue sapphires decoration on the bezel that returns on the dial for a total of 59 stones, contrasting with the steel case and reflecting the blue stitching on the white alligator strap with branded “E&Co.” buckle.

In the version with 87 precious stones (44 rubies and 43 diamonds), the bezel becomes the corolla of a delicate flower in contrasting shades. There are two dial versions: mother-of-pearl white with finely stylised hands and Roman numerals at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock, or satin white in the “coquille” version, with diamond set Roman numerals at V and XI, for a more sophisticated touch.

Through the use of light and sophisticated colours, Gilda expresses the charming femininity of the Eberhard & Co. woman.
