Hi Guys. Got this little beauty yesterday. It's a 1940's Eterna running an house 520U/600 movement. One interesting note is that this particular movement was the first created specifically to be made for a wrist watch by Eterna. As you can see in the pictures, it has a n engraved back that reads Charles I. Olin N.Y. a little goggling came up with this gentle man. Some more pics of the watch. ![]() Regards |

I couldn't help to notice that movement on the Eterna looks identical to the Rolex Ref.4139 Precision. I still prefer look of the Speidel Twist-o-Flex...

Hi Simon. You are right. They do look similar, albeit with a slight difference on th winding mechanism. Thanks for posting your findings. |
