Eterna Matic Super Kon Tiki Limited Edition 50Years KonTiki Automatic Watch The history of this timepiece begins long before its introduction on the market and precisely on 28 April 1947 when the Norwegian archaeologist Thor Heyerdahl left Callao (Peru) with a boat (which today we would probably define as a raft) built by local populations in balsa: this type of boat was used by the Inca populations in pre-Columbian times.The aim of this undertaking was to demonstrate how the populations of South America could, in pre-Columbian times, have colonized Polynesia even with the modest means at their disposal.The raft involved in this exploration was named Kon-Tiki (in the Inca language he was the God of the sun).On the wrist of the Norwegian archaeologist (author of other feats similar to this in the following decades) there was an Eterna watch created specifically for this feat (the only concession, together with a sextant, to the attempt to use equipment available only at the time of the Inca civilization).Only in the following decade, following the celebrations for the centenary of the Swiss company, was the first Eterna KonTiki introduced on the market in 1958.After the classic Kontiki, Eterna introduced the Super Kontiki to the market, also equipped with a water resistance of up to 20 atmospheres (therefore 200 meters) but which was characterized by the presence of a rotating bezel.For the 50th anniversary of the Norwegian archaeologist's feat (1997), Eterna developed this Super KonTiki in a limited edition of 499 pieces.Eterna Super KonTiki n. 119/499Diver's chronometer with date at 3 o'clock.39 mm steel case, sapphire glass cover and rotating bezel.ETA 2824-2 caliber movement.25 rubies.38 hour power reserve.wr. 300m The product is new and will be shipped with a 2 year warranty.
