1940 Chronograph Telemeter
A heritage chronograph that brings telemeter-era instrument graphics into a polished modern case.
Story & heritage
Eterna’s official heritage page lists the 1940 Chronograph Telemeter as part of the Heritage collection, and the product page specifies a calibre Maison Eterna 3916A chronograph movement.
Its two-register layout, telemeter-style dial and date function make it the brand’s most explicitly vintage-instrument contemporary icon.
Materials & craft
Official specifications list Calibre Maison Eterna 3916A with 60-hour power reserve, 35 jewels and one ball bearing, plus a polished steel 42 mm case, sapphire display back, anti-reflective sapphire crystal and black leather strap.
How to choose & style
It wants restraint: dark knitwear, wool coats and minimal leather goods. The chronograph dial already supplies the complexity, so avoid stacking it with loud bracelets.
