Key Features and Specifications: Brand: Eterna-Matic Model: Automatic Date (Ref. 633 2014 25) Year of Production: Circa 1974 Movement: High-quality Swiss automatic movement, Eterna Caliber 12824 (25 jewels), featuring a patented Swiss-patented (Brevete) rotor system with ball bearings Case Construction: Gold-plated, cushion/TV-screen shaped case with a solid stainless steel screw-down case back Case Dimensions: 34.7 mm (excluding the crown) Dial: Original warm champagne-colored dial with applied black and gold hour markers, matching hands, a date window at the 3 o'clock position, and the inscription "ETERNA-MATIC / SWISS" Case Back: Signed on the inside: "ETERNA WATCH CO / SWISS / STAINLESS STEEL BACK / 633 2014 25" Strap: Fitted with a high-quality brown leather strap and a matching buckle Condition and Performance Report: Mechanics: The movement winds automatically and operates smoothly, maintaining an adequate power reserve. Date Function: The quick-set date feature functions correctly, and the date advances automatically every 24 hours. Note on Time Setting: When setting the time, turning the crown forward causes the mechanism to slip, meaning the hands do not move. However, turning the crown backwards adjusts the hands smoothly and sets the time correctly, without any issues. Aesthetics: The original dial is in very good vintage condition with a clean texture. The gold-plated case retains its vibrant color, showing only minor, authentic surface wear consistent with its age. Shipping and Packaging: Fast, insured, and secure shipping with a tracking number.
