This truly unique and rare oversize timepiece commissioned and retailed by E.Gubelin of Switzerland is in superb all original condition and possibly one of a kind.  I certainly have never seen anything like this in all my years.  It is a beautiful combination of sporty ruggedness in the all stainless steel case along with fancy dress like style with those cool fluted horn style lugs.  It has a great presence on the wrist measuring 37mm in diameter and 9mm thick!! The case, dial, hands and movement are in truly excellent condition, fully serviced and ready to wear! 

E.Gubelin worked with several companies in its heyday including Patek Philippe, Audemars Piquet and Jaeger Lecoultre (to name a few) to retail high end pieces of what I would call horological "Art" to aficionados of the day. It is one of the rare horological business relationships where many of the timepieces produced, in this case by Eterna, were signed only with the E.Gubelin mark, inside and out. I believe this demonstrates how eager these companies were to work with this famous high end Swiss retailer.
