Description

The listing, Vintage 1975 Bulova Accutron Watch Stainless Steel Water Resistant has ended.

Please read entire description thoroughly before posting comments/questions!

I have researched this watch several times and spent nearly an hour a few days ago trying to find this watch. Maybe there is only a few of this particular model.

I DO know that Bulova is a big and respected company. Their watches are not cheap and some vintage models are worth plenty. This one isn't exactly one that is uber popular.


I am describing everything to the best of my ability an telling you everything I know.

It is stainless steel
Water resistant
I'm guessing its men's.
On all sections of the band it reads,on top, "Speidel USA" beneath "PAT 3587226"
Case serial number is "602356" unless its "G02356"
Under "BULOVA" on the case is N5 meaning 1975
It also says "stainless steel" and "water resistance"
It is wind up. Few and minor scratches. It currently does not work.

On the face it says bulova accutron which when collecting these watches a accutron models are collectible.

If you have any info to add or if I am wrong about value or worth please comment:)

It probably means someone has already placed a bid higher than 600. Listia operates via proxy bidding. Someone may have a high bid of 5000 on this.

value is GOOD een if not working the people who fix old watches have bought similar items for $55 to 90.oo non working I had a $200. Seiko that was new in box on EBAY could not get bid the exact watch I had but broken I sold for $57.oo plus shipping. had them listed one after another .. SO yes it is good

Just a comment, I don't think ANY of the early Bulova Accutron watches were windups. They worked with a tuning fork that oscillated at high speed and were powered by a battery. The batteries are relatively easy to find not so a working tuning mechanism. best of luck and this watch still has value.
