Bulova - Accutron Spaceview 214 - 男士 - 1969

Bulova Accutron 214 Spaceview - 1969 (date code M9) - stainless steel

The iconic tuning-fork watch with the open 'Spaceview' look: the famous green circuit, coils and tuning fork are fully visible through the crystal. You hear the typical Accutron hum instead of a tick, and the seconds hand sweeps perfectly smoothly.

Important: this is a Spaceview CONVERSION. The watch started life as a regular Accutron 214 with a dial; the dial was removed and a Spaceview-style crystal fitted, as was commonly done. The movement and case are genuine Bulova Accutron 214. Price and reserve reflect this.
