It's just come into bud for the first time so let,s see what the flowers are like. It is/was a really nice symmetrical plant and as soon as you repot it, it grows some new ribs and messes itself up. Still, really nice curved spines with dark tips.

Gymnoocalyium eytianum
This poor old chap - bought under the name Gymnocalycium eytianum has the indignity of being noted in Mr Charles' book as "of uncertain attribution since the original description includes elements of two taxa" Well, really! It could be G. marsoneri (don't think so) or G. pflanzii.
