eval is not required here!

cd() { 
    [[ ${1::1} == - ]] &&
      case ${1:1} in 
        '' | *[^0-9]*) ;;
        *)
            local _cd_upDir
            printf -v _cd_upDir '%*s' ${1:1}
            builtin cd ${_cd_upDir// /..\/}
            return $?
        ;;
    esac
    builtin cd "$@"
}

Sorry!
