EBERHARD & CO. AND FABRIZIO MACCHI IN A NEW ADVENTURE

EBERHARD & CO. HAS A NEW NOBLE “AMBASSADOR” FROM THE SPORTING WORLD: TRACK AND ROAD CYCLIST AND PARALYMPIC CHAMPION FABRIZIO MACCHI.

FABRIZIO MACCHI’S STORY BEGINS IN VARESE ON 26 JULY 1970, AND IS A STORY IN WHICH HE HAS RUN THE GAUNTLET OF PAIN, HOPE AND COURAGE SINCE THE AGE OF THIRTEEN, WHEN HE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A PARTICULARLY AGGRESSIVE FORM OF CANCER IN HIS LEFT KNEE. THIS OPENED UP WHAT THIS REMARKABLE ATHLETE CALLS A THREE-YEAR “BREAK”, WHICH ROBBED HIM OF A SECTION OF HIS LUNG, A LEG AND A TROUBLE-FREE ADOLESCENCE.

AFTER THIS BREAK, IN JUST A FEW YEARS FABRIZIO ACHIEVED SOME INCREDIBLE SPORTING GOALS BY WINNING THREE NEW YORK MARATHONS AND NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL ROWING TITLES. BUT IT WAS IN CYCLING THAT HE FOUND HIS TRUE CALLING, WHERE HE CAN EXPRESS HIMSELF FULLY AND CONSTANTLY PUSH HIMSELF TO AND EVEN BEYOND HIS LIMITS. IN 2004 HE WON THE BRONZE MEDAL AT THE ATHENS PARALYMPICS IN THE INDIVIDUAL PURSUIT EVENT, A RESULT OF THE ATHLETE’S INCREDIBLE DETERMINATION.
 FABRIZIO MACCHI IS A FANTASTIC EXAMPLE OF PLUCK, STRENGTH AND STUBBORN COURAGE, ALL QUALITIES THAT HAVE ENABLED HIM TO CONTINUE TO BELIEVE IN HIS DREAM AND TO REVEL IN A VERITABLE “REBIRTH”, BOTH IN THE SPORTING FIELD AND IN HIS PERSONAL LIFE, AN INDUBITABLE “DAREDEVIL”. A DAREDEVIL JUST LIKE THE EBERHARD & CO. “CHRONO 4 TEMERARIO” CHRONOGRAPH GIVEN TO HIM BY THE SWISS WATCHMAKERS, THE PERSONALITY OF WHICH REFLECTS THE CYCLIST’S SPIRIT.

THE CHRONO 4 TEMERARIO IS THE MOST DARING AND INNOVATIVE VERSION OF THE CHRONOGRAPH WITH WHICH EBERHARD & CO. HAS MANAGED TO INVENT A NEW WAY OF TELLING THE TIME. EBERHARD & CO. HAS DEVELOPED THREE EXCLUSIVE PATENTS FOR THIS TONNEAU-SHAPED MODEL: ONE REGARDS THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE MOVEMENT, ANOTHER CONCERNS THE ACCESS SYSTEM TO THE CROWN AND ONE RELATES TO THE SAFETY CLASP OF THE STRAP AND STEEL BRACELET.

A UNION OF TECHNICAL INNOVATION AND REFINED DESIGN WHICH GIVES RISE TO A CHRONOGRAPH WITH AN ABSOLUTELY ORIGINAL SHAPE AND FACE: A CHALLENGE TO THE WORLD OF TIME, STARTING WITH THE NAME “TEMERARIO”, WHICH MEANS DAREDEVIL, THAT IS, SOMEONE WHO DARES AND WHO DOES NOT STOP WHEN FACED WITH NEW ROADS, VALUES THAT MACCHI HAS ALWAYS HELD DEAR AND WHICH HE NOW WEARS ON HIS WRIST.

“GENERALLY, AS SOON AS I OPEN MY EYES IN THE MORNING I FEEL A SENSE OF AGREEABLE ASTONISHMENT. IT’S THE BEST TIME. THERE’S A DAY TO BE LIVED AND I’M IN IT.” THESE WORDS OF THE CYCLIST EMBODY HIS CREDO: A DAILY CHALLENGE, A NEW OPPORTUNITY FOR HIMSELF.

FABRIZIO MACCHI, WHO HAS ALWAYS BEEN INVOLVED IN FIGHTING FOR THE RIGHTS OF THE DISABLED, IS ALSO ONE OF THE PRINCIPALS OF AISOS (ITALIAN OSTEOSARCOMA ASSOCIATION). HIS STORY IS ONE OF THE NICEST AND CLEANEST EXAMPLES FROM THE SPORTING WORLD AND EBERHARD & CO. IS HAPPY TO HAVE HIM AS ITS AMBASSADOR.
