Vintage 1968 Bulova Accutron 214 Beige Dial Tuning Fork Men's Watch

Description: Beautiful fully serviced 1968 beige dial Accutron 214. This is a factory Accutron with dates/stamps/numbers matching. The housing is in good condition with normal wear. The dial has some wear, as do the hands. The hands were relumed. Brand new crystal installed. New battery installed. This watch was fully disassembled, ultrasonic cleaned, oiled, phased for modern 1.55v batteries and regulated within -/+2 seconds per day. I service & repair Tuning Fork Accutron watches. The highest quality & Accutron recommended synthetic oils and lubricants are used. A professional vibrograf tuning fork watch timing machine is used to regulate watches. Expect the watch to gain 2-4 seconds per day when worn, because when in the fork down position gravity will slightly increase the fork frequency. Phasing (microadjustment of index and pawl finger positioning for ultra precise timekeeping) is accomplished using a vintage Accutron Watchmaster test set and variable power supply to incrementally increase the voltage and make super fine adjustments to allow the watch to run normally on 1.55v batteries. These watches were made for 1.35v batteries which are no longer available, however most Accutrons can be phased to run just fine on modern batteries. A small percentage of Accutrons can't be phased for modern batteries because they have forks less tolerant of higher voltages, resulting in excessive amplitude. Most of my accutrons for sale are phased for modern batteries, occasionally I will decide that an accucell (a special battery made for accutrons to run at a lower voltage) is more appropriate, but regardless I will mention it in the description. These watches are also not waterproof, so please avoid water & moisture. I really love Accutrons and I believe they're some of best watches ever made. My goal is for Accutrons to be continued to be worn and loved for decades to come.
