A legendary watch and longtime star of the Eterna collections, the KonTiki returns with a brand-new heart. The first of 88 possible variations of the new Caliber 39 by Eterna – a Manufacture movement based on an ultra-rational construction and capable of generating interpretations ranging from a two-hand manually-wound version through to an automatic chronograph with chronometer-precision quality.
For over 160 years, Eterna has been manufacturing the finest quality mechanical, luxury watches in the grand Swiss watchmaking tradition. The brand has been continuously innovating since 1856.
Three screws are enough to secure any and all of the modules or sub-assemblies, themselves composed of a limited number of parts. The first variation of this refined mechanism features a dual-time display elegantly staged on a dial by means of a red pointer sweeping around a light-and-dark-shaded ring corresponding to nighttime and daytime hours. The robust and sporty new case of the Royal KonTiki borrows its sandblasted curved grooves from the 1970s models, while proudly sporting a curvaceous case that is unmistakably its own.
The watch case is made of polished steel with a satin finish and the diameter measures 42 mm. The watch is water resistant to 100 meters and features a black rubber strap with pin buckle.
