·Hello everybody,
I hesitate to acquire this Eterna watch which would date, according to the serial number, from the year 1932. I really like its military look and the dial seems to be in good condition for its age. However, comparing the typography of the word "Eterna" with other watch dials of the same period, I realize that it is rather unusual. For one thing, it is larger than most watches I can compare it with, and for another, it is in italics. I don't know what to make of it... could it be a redial ? How can would you know ? Should I just buy it if I like it and if the movement corresponds to the era of the watch?
Thank you so much for your help !!
