The Eterna-Matic 1000 is a 35 mm gold-cased dress watch dating to around 1968, built on Eterna's self-winding caliber 1479K. Eterna pioneered ball-bearing-mounted automatic winding in 1948 with its original Eterna-matic movement, using five strategically placed ball bearings to cut friction on the oscillating weight; the "1000" on the dial marks that lineage. The clean, date-free dial with slim baton markers and a central seconds hand reflects the line's restrained, understated design.
