My uncle owns an Eterna chronograph like the one in the photo below which is pretty cool. I always have a hard time keeping my eyes off it when we meet. It’s a real looker

That a stunner. Be a nice nephew and continue to express your admiration. 😇

They are fantastic, especially the Kontiki line of the late 50’s, early 60’s. And the divers of course. One of the unsung hero’s of Swiss watch brands. My 3 Kontiki collection.

Is this a wind up movement? This still has the old Eterna font you dont see these often in this condition amazing!

I really like vintage Eterna’s simple and done well. I have a pair, an automatic from 1969 and a manual from 1971. I’m not obsessed but I do enjoy wearing them a lot.

Can contribute only the one, but it's one I really like - an Eterna-Matic Centenaire Ref 765 from 1962. I have a thing for square watches, and this one is a favorite. Eterna is one rabbit hole that is worth diving into deeply, I think.

That date font is new to me, i haven’t seen that type of numbers before. Really nice watch!

I picked up this 18ct gold Eterna some years ago - I loved the classic 1960s style. Unfortunately it was admired by a friend who offered me such a good trade for something I had wanted from him, so it no longer graces my collection.
