Our remarks
ETERNA-MATIC Vintage Super KonTiki – Military IDF – Stainless Steel – GF Bracelet – Circa 1967
An exceptional and highly collectible Eterna-Matic Super KonTiki military-issued watch, produced for the Israeli Defense Forces, crafted in stainless steel and preserved in excellent condition, circa 1967.
We are pleased to present this outstanding Eterna-Matic Super KonTiki, a legendary tool watch with genuine military provenance. Issued to the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), this reference represents one of the most historically significant and hard-to-find KonTiki variants, combining robust construction with purposeful, utilitarian design.
Produced circa 1967, the Super KonTiki was developed as a professional-grade diving and field watch, capable of withstanding extreme conditions. The original black dial features bold luminous hour markers, strong hands, and clear legibility, hallmarks of military specification timepieces. The rotating bezel further reinforces its tool-watch character, designed for precise timing in demanding operational environments.
The stainless steel case retains excellent proportions and sharp lines, reflecting careful use and preservation. Adding to its appeal, the watch is fitted with a correct steel Gay Frères bracelet, a highly desirable and collectible component that enhances both authenticity and value.
Powering the watch is Eterna’s renowned automatic movement with ball-bearing rotor technology, celebrated for its durability and efficiency — a fitting engine for a watch intended for military service. This innovation would go on to influence automatic movement design across the Swiss watch industry.
"Combining true military provenance, rugged functionality, and iconic design, this Eterna-Matic Super KonTiki IDF stands as a cornerstone of vintage tool watch collecting. A rare opportunity to acquire an excellent example of one of the most storied military-issued dive watches of the 20th century"
