THESE ARE FAST BECOMING SCARCE AND COLLECTIBLE

ACCUTRON 2182 360HZ TIME DAY DATE SWEEP SECONDS

Tuning fork 1965 to 1975 serial 5-107196

The Bulova Accutron was first sold to the public in November of 1960. Few developments in timekeeping technology created a stir as the introduction of a watch that used a tuning fork as a timing standard rather than a rotating balance. Eight years in development, the Accutron had only 12 moving parts and 27 parts total, compared with 26 moving parts and 130 parts total in a typical self-winding mechanical wrist watch.

Even today, some 40 years later, the Accutron continues to fascinate vintage collectors and non-collectors alike. There is a whole division of collectors which collects nothing but Accutrons, and most collecting generalists have at least one Accutron in their possession. Their desirability can be attributed to several factors:

*During the Accutron’s heyday from 1960 to about 1970, only about two million units were sold. By today’s standards, this is certainly a limited production, and even more limited when you consider the number that have been thrown away or cannibalized for parts.

*They are accurate and require no winding. Timed properly, Accutrons are supposed to neither gain nor lose more than one minute per month. Prior to the Accutron, it was unusual to find a mechanical watch of this accuracy, even a certified chronometer.
