I am offering from my collection a near mint SS 60’s Eterna KonTiki 20 with a beautiful charcoal-blue dial with its original KonTiki Gay Freres rice-bead bracelet… the watch was purchased a few years ago from iwannabuyawatch in LA in NOS condition for several hundred dollars more than I am asking today… it has only been worn a few times since and that is the reason I’m letting it go…
The watch features a nice sized 36.5mm case with screw-down crown and QS date (white on black date window)… it has wonderful beveled and applied hour markers with white inset (non-luminous)… there are luminous dots on the outer edges of these markers that still glow a bit… there is also a cool red line running through the hour markers and around the inner chapter track that really highlights everything and makes the dial pop! The dial itself is a very cool sunburst blue-grey that changes colors and shades depending on light conditions… I’ve never seen this dial on any other KonTiki 20s before… the watch was very difficult to photograph because of the nicely domed original acrylic crystal that has the 5-ball symbol in it…
The original signed KonTiki rice-bead bracelet (made & signed inside by Gay Freres) is also in near mint condition and will fit up to a 7.5” wrist…
All in all a very nice package for you vintage guys out there! :-!
$600 shipped Priority in the USA…
Please email w/ any ??
Thanks for looking,
