Beautiful and elegant solid 18k gold Eterna-Matic 3000 from the mid 60s. Just serviced. Eterna is a great and underrated brand, and is a real value packed watch in the vintage category. Included is gold watch, beige suede strap, and lizard grain strap. The sunburst dial is quite charming. For reference size, my wrist is 7.5 inches, and it wears beautifully. As an interesting watch history titbit, the Eterna 3000 was the first watch to use ball bearings to mount the rotor onto the movement. Rolex even used this movement for some time in some of their own models. Comes at an absolute bargain of $699. Comps are well higher than $1000.
Estimated Private Party Value $350 — $750
