Eterna Matic KonTiki – Ref. (First‑Generation Super‑KonTiki) – 37mm – Automatic – 1962
The Eterna Matic KonTiki is one of the most historically significant vintage tool watches ever produced, created in honour of Thor Heyerdahl’s famous 1947 Kon‑Tiki expedition across the Pacific. Robust, purposeful and designed for explorers, the KonTiki line became synonymous with resilience and adventure. Based on our research and the serial number, this example is confirmed as a first‑generation Super‑KonTiki, produced in 1962 — an exceptionally rare and desirable reference.
