1970s Era Accutron Advertisement

Accutrons ceased production in 1977 because quartz watches could be made more inexpensively and more accurately. Although the early Accutrons tend to be more coveted by collectors, the late model Accutrons have that great 70s style, of which this is a perfect example.

This watch is very clean and simple, uncluttered by a day / date window and has a pretty blue face with a subtle sheen. The blue and white hour and minute hands complemet the face perfectly. The red tipped second hand stands out beautifully against the blue dial and is strangely mesmerizing to watch.
