    Hi OF!

    I'm selling my 1958 Eterna-Matic Chronometer (which has the Canadian retailer Birks' name on the dial). I bought this from an active O&P (Italian forum) member who had it serviced just this May 2017. The size is 34.5 mm. The sunburst dial is very nice, with applied arrow markers and applied Eterna logo. The pics don't do the dial justice (one of those hard-to-photograph dials). The signed crown is recessed, making the watch look perfectly round and symmetrical. I think the case has had some light polish in the past (though the collector I bought it from claims the watch originally had no sharp edges).

    Here are some pics:

    For this watch (head only, no straps), I'm looking for USD 700 (PP, friends / family) with Fedex international shipping. Thanks!

    Very nice piece! I have been successfully repatriating a few Birks labelled watches over the years; if this doesn't sell, I would have interest!
