Found my Grail Eberhard Scafograf 200

Its been a long wait but i finally found one of my grail watches, a 1960s Eberhard Scafograf 200 dive watch. For me its one of the most beautiful vintage dive watches. I just love the gloss gilt dial with large triangle 12 3 6 9 hour markers. The watch also uses a 42mm case of similar design to the Omega Speedmaster.

This particular watch was an estate find and is in untouched original condition. The gloss dial is minty with a nice green patina on the hour plots. The hand lumes also has turned into green. The case is unpolished and the signed crown is in great condition. The ghost bezel is quite decent and really gives the watch its vintage appeal. The Felsa cal. 1560 is very clean and still accurate for its age. This watch definitely is a worthy addition to my collection.

Nice watch , do you know what ref number the scafograf 300 has with identical dial like yours. But it labeled 300 and also have no date window
