    Hello OF members
    I an interested in purchasing this Eterna.
    It’s an auto cal, hidden crown, sharp bevels. To me all is ok. Except “centenaire 61” wording which seems unusual (I stumpled on several “Centaenaire” dials but NOT a single withc “61”.
    I already have an Eterna cal 1479 (no date) but let her go because the case is in bad shape. So in would like to acquire this beauty.
    Thanks in advance for your insights.
    Ps: photos from seller.

    My bad! I mishandled [“...”] search conditions. Included “Centenaire” and “61” as a single item search :( Now found several similar ones on C.24. Thank you @Tony C.
    Apart it what do you think about general condition of that watch. Tks
    :)

    Looks good. DeLuxe presumably for 18k case. Here’s mine which has 18k white gold case and no DeLuxe! This thread has prompted me to wear it now.... C39DB83F-5E64-4F67-866F-98B82142F6C3.jpeg

    Thank you for insights and sharings @bubba48 ba48 @Vitezi @Norfolk ! :)
    Eventually I skip this Centenaire 61. In person the printings on watch dial looks somewhat “dull”. Like someone has tried to clean the solid gold dial to make it better.
    Thanks again to all
