A Superb 2021 Eterna KonTiki Model Ref: 1222.41 in Fantastic Condition, Sold with Original Box and Papers

The Eterna KonTiki watch range traces its origins to a legendary maritime adventure in 1947. Named after the Kon-Tiki expedition led by Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl, the watch was born out of necessity and resilience. Heyerdahl and his crew sailed a balsa wood raft from Peru to Polynesia to prove that ancient civilizations could have made long sea voyages. They relied on Eterna watches for their precision and durability throughout the gruelling journey.
    
Inspired by this feat, Eterna introduced the KonTiki watch in 1958, embodying robustness and reliability. The original design featured water resistance up to 200 meters, a significant achievement at that time, making it ideal for adventurers and divers alike. Over the decades, the KonTiki range has evolved technologically while retaining its iconic aesthetic and adventurous spirit. Today, it stands as a tribute to exploration and human endurance, continuing Eterna's legacy of innovation in horology.
