Amazing Eterna with three individual mechanical movements. This is not an original factory-made Eterna, but in fact a marriage of Eterna parts in a non-Eterna silver watchcase designed and assembled by Gerhard Schmidt in 2004. Regardless it is an amazing watch that I would love to have in my watch collection. At the top of the dial there is a second time zone preferably for Tokyo-time powered by a manual Eterna 1417 U calibre with 21600 BPH. from 1956, Movement number: 4 243 462.In the middle of the dial we have an automatic Eterna calibre 12671-1 with an impressive 28800 BPH. from 1972 with a date function. Notice that the minute indexes are lager then the hour index, which is kind of unusual. This calibre is obviously intended to be set after the time in Berlin, the capitol of Germany, and standard time for Gerhard Schmidt. The hour and minute hand feature some luminous application and the second hand has nice red paint on the tip.
At the bottom we have a manual Eterna calibre 1418 U at 21600 BPH. from 1956 Movement number: 4 046 558. This movement is according to Gerhard Schmidt to be set after the "Star time zone" whatever that is?
This being a marriage Gerhard Schmidt obviously did not have a an old stock dial to put in use, but did in fact design and manufacture the dial himself as the drawing on the left shows. I think the different styles of the time zone designs definitely makes the watch look better then if the same design would have been applied all over, not a watch that you get mundane with in the first run.It gets even better when you flip the watch around discovering the beautiful see-through glass back that lets you see the beautiful Eterna calibres in action. The watchcase is as previously mentioned custom made out of silver just for the marriage. Even the glass on the front and back have been specially made for the case, tough out of low grade glass in order to shape it and therefore it is a bit scratchy, but that only adds some charm to it. Note the nice touch of the flexible lugs that automatically adjust their down angel onto the arm of the wearer, a nice touch that you do not see too often and definitely should make the watch with its “banana” shape very comfortable to wear.
Let’s finish of with some pictures of the case construction.
