Notes

Since 1856 the Eterna name has been synonymous with the manufacture of high-quality, mechanical watches. As a pioneer of the art of watchmaking, Eterna has introduced a great many significant developments in its long history. Revolutionary innovations like the winding rotor on ball bearings or the first wrist watch with an alarm function come from Eterna. Even today movements are developed and made at Eterna. As one of the small number of manufactures, Eterna places value on untraditional high-tech components for its traditional craft. And it is by doing so that Eterna succeeds in finding surprising solutions to watchmaking challenges that have been around for centuries.
