High grade watch and cutting edge technology of its time. Based around Bullova's Accutron system of using a tuning fork that is vibrated by electro magnets and the vibrations are used as a power source for the watch mechanical parts. The movement is a Mosaba ESA 9162 which is also used by IWC, Omega, Eternal, Tasso, Zenith, Certina, Baume and Rado as well as others. A real classic and iconic 1970s Swiss watch from the tuning fork stable. Hear the classic Accutron hum when you put the watch to your ear and see the fantastic sweep action second hand.
