Eterna KonTiki Date 2009 Watch
While there have been a few new releases from Eterna this year, the company has been relatively quiet. I did happen to notice this fine new release based on their re-issue of the classic KonTiki model. There have actually been a great deal of KonTiki watches over the years, but the versions with the four triangles are the purest in form. The recently re-released the KonTiki had a centralized date dial with an indicator hand, this new model has an internal date disc with a covertly placed date window between 4 and 5 o¡¯clock. I must admit that it does improve the look of the watch ¡ª as the date window is functional, but not obtrusive. It further allows for greater appreciation of the dial and basic theme of the watch. The watch was designed as a sport watch back in the 1950s (I believe). Funny how what was informal then, almost looks formal now. Though the black and orange faced version is still quite sporty looking and certainly has the best personality of the two in my opinion. Really

This was a much more refined and better decorated (all the bridges were rhodium plated) movement than the predecessor, but you can see some similarities to the 22A. It made sense to take a proven existing caliber from Longines' stable and

Paul Revere's watch???
A few years after Paul Revere road through Boston warning the British about our American arms, he might have purchased this watch from Abe Brequet. Souscription watches are called by this name because they were introduced by means of a publicity brochure in 1797. They were marketed on a subscription basis with a down payment of a quarter of the price of with each order. Designed with a minimum number of parts to make them affordable but still of high quality and capable of accurate timekeeping. Reliable and affordable the souscription watch enjoyed great success and attracted many new clients. Some 700 examples were made, mainly in silver cases. Breguet used the calibre of the souscription watch to make his first tact watches. For some reason the movement is numbered 838 but the secret signature on the dial is 1430.
