Hi and welcome (back) to the forum!!
Eclipse is a description I latched onto for describing the exact animal you have. I produced several in 2005 and a few more in 2006 and 2007. So far it appears to be a "phase" not a single gene morph. By Phase I mean a line bred or polygenic trait, not related to one single gene. I don't know if it's been done yet but I suspect a eclipse X eclipse breeding would yield a higher percentage of eclipse phase babies but also some with some degree of crescenting.
My fav eclipse I produced is Amber, one of my 2005 holdbacks.
Amber as a baby...
Nice looking BRB's BTW.
