Eterna matic 2002 wristwatch, circa 1973.
The history of Eterna officially began on November 7, 1856. Its founders, Dr. Joseph Girard (surgeon) and Urs Shild, a teacher,
baptized the company U.Shild & Co. Shild was an accountant at F. Kunz & Girard, when one day he managed to become a partner,
changing the name to Girard & Shild, producing blanks and pocket watches.
In 1866, Girard left the company and was replaced by Adolph Shild. Urs's brother.
In 1896, Adolph Shild left the company to found one under his own name: A. Shild or AS.
In 1905, U. Shild & Co. took the name Eterna. Eterna's success came in 1908 with the first watch with integrated alarm.
In fact, the history of Eterna is an important part of the history of modern watchmaking.
Eterna founded a new mechanical movement manufacturing company in 1932 under the name ETA and expanded its production and current know-how with the acquisition of Valjoux. In 1947 what would become a symbolic and legendary watch was born: the Eterna Kon Tiki.
In 1948, another successful Eterna watch came out: the Eterna-Matic.
On June 30, 2012, Eterna was acquired by the Volant Ltd group.
