We report on the detection of the eclipse in- and egress of the high-mass X-ray binary M33 X-7 with 3.45 d orbital period (for the latest ephemeris see Pietsch et al. 2004, A&A 413, 879) within the first Chandra CHASeM33 very large program observations of M33. M33 X-7 was in the field of view of four Chandra observations obtained from 2005 September 21 to October 2. For the first time, we monitored the source during its gradual transition (15 ks duration, 0.05 in binary phase) into eclipse (eclipse start JD 2453635.39) during the first observation.
