    A yellow gold-capped beauty, this is one I will truly miss, it's wrist presence is astounding, but I must let it go for a bigger fish...

    The smooth-outlined case has only seen light polish, and it's in excellent shape. Twenty millimeter lugs makes this watch wear larger than it's 35mm width.

    The unique and beautiful dial indices are perhaps the most captivating feature of this Eterna Chronometer: decorated gold rectangles and arrows that appear different in various light conditions. The lightly-patinated cream dial has a few small blemishes; please see the detailed pictures for full description.

    The watch will come on an excellent condition brown lizard strap (seen in the last 3 pics), or if you prefer the 'ostrich' in most of the pics, just let me know.

    The Eterna-matic chronometer-rated caliber 1429 movement's service history is unknown, but this one has strong amplitudes, and remarkable timekeeping (0-5s/d) in all positions on my Timegrapher.

    Price: $725 PayPal confirmed, or wired (3% discount), shipped within ConUS. Others please inquire. Sale is final unless the description is determined inaccurate.

    Thanks for looking!
