Hard to find calibre 1079 vintage manual wind Eterna watch. Try and find another with this calibre! Serial number places the date of this piece at around 1947. It is a superb piece in excellent condition given its age. The dial has formed what I feel to be the most wonderful patina, it looks like stars in the sky! The numerals on the dial are evocative of the 1940s and really pop out when held in the light at certain angles. A fine piece for the collector, as a birth year watch or the Eterna enthusiast.
