The Eterna KonTiki watch range traces its origins to a legendary maritime adventure in 1947. Named after the Kon-Tiki expedition led by Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl, the watch was born out of necessity and resilience. Heyerdahl and his crew sailed a balsa wood raft from Peru to Polynesia to prove that ancient civilizations could have made long sea voyages. They relied on Eterna watches for their precision and durability throughout the gruelling journey.
    
Inspired by this feat, Eterna introduced the KonTiki watch in 1958, embodying robustness and reliability. The original design featured water resistance up to 200 meters, a significant achievement at that time, making it ideal for adventurers and divers alike. Over the decades, the KonTiki range has evolved technologically while retaining its iconic aesthetic and adventurous spirit. Today, it stands as a tribute to exploration and human endurance, continuing Eterna's legacy of innovation in horology.

What's on Offer

The Eterna KonTiki 1222.41 is a distinguished timepiece that epitomizes elegance and robust functionality. The watch features a meticulously crafted stainless steel case, ensuring durability while exuding a sleek, modern aesthetic. Measuring 42mm in diameter, it strikes a perfect balance between presence and comfort on the wrist.

The dial is a rich black and grey colourway, providing a striking contrast to the luminous hands and markers that ensure readability in various lighting conditions.

Powering this sophisticated watch is the reliable SW200-1 movement, renowned for its precision and longevity. Running well as it should having been inspected and timed by our watchmaker to confirm originality and accuracy!
    
A sapphire crystal protects the dial from scratches, while the date function at the 4.30 position on the dial adds practical utility to its design and aesthetic. Completing the look is a sturdy leather strap, embodying style and substance in one exceptional timepiece. 

This watch is in superb condition, barely worn, and is sold with its original box and papers. It looks great on the wrist, is comfortable and stylish and will serve the wearer well through all manner of occasions. A great buy!
