Restored 1964 Accutron 214 Stainless Spaceview "G" Men's Watch Numbers Matching

Description: ThE InFamous.ThE Iconic.ThE Historic.ThE Most Important Timepiece in History.ThE Accutron 214.NOTHING else compares.LONG before Omega hitched a ride... on the coattails of Accutron... This was in Space. In Satellites. On Astronaut's wrists. In Rockets.Then Omega bought a ticket to ride... Gorgeous restored vintage Stainless Steel genuine version of the classic Chapter Ring Spaceview 'G' Modelin the #2528 case (the ink stamp is inside the case back) from Bulova's USA Factories in New York. All Numbers Matching/correct details original. Even the Coil Assembly is the correct second series of the 3 wire version. Correct factory hand set with the original hour and minute hands... and a popular add on... the factory made Tuning Fork Emblem Sweep Second Hand... with gorgeous paint and crispy luminous... not repop. Correct NOS factory crystal installed... not repop. Correct case and Chapter Ring (now with a gorgeous warm "patina" tannish glow) with the original, now crispy, luminous... not repop. The Pillar Plate date is numbers matching M4 (1964) silver tone original USA factory movement Caliber 214. Paul Newman wore this model Spaceview in the mid/late 1960s... before his wife bought him the Daytona that sold for +/- $16M.Paul Newman is NOT included in this listing.Paul Newman's watch is NOT included in this listing.The pictures of Paul Newman are NOT included in this listing.The pictures of Paul Newman are for informational purposes only.;) Gorgeous original case with just a bit of "patina/character." NOT another mismatched Parts Bin Frankensteined Converted Crapper from the chop shops. Back Set! Electro-Magnetic Tuning Fork! The first successful, and BEST, Electronic Timepiece! The only watch that MUST be in every Watch Lovers collection! It's a HUMMER! This was completely disassembled and deep cleaned. Friction points oiled and the setting crown mechanism has been greased per Bulova Spec's. Phased to run on the modern/long lasting/inexpensive 1.55v 387S battery... no need for diodes or "purple dollops."No reason to reduce the value of these classics by altering the electronics.This tests and times beautifully and within spec. No need to alter and stress the electronics on this beauty... thereby devaluing it!Why "coat" the Coils... adding stress and trapping the windings and limiting expansion/contraction movement?70% of the Coil issues are on the Battery side (due to owners using incorrect batteries back in the day)... NOT the Component side! Stop wasting time over-bidding Frankensteined FAKES, when you can have the genuine article. Why buy an over "engineered" parts bin mess from a part-time "hobbyist" who throws together a multitude of parts?What value does that have now... much less in the future?!It'll be worth nothing more than what it is... an altered mess!Invest in a Classic that you can be proud of... and that will retain value. 98% of the "Spaceviews" here are eBay are "converted" Fakeviews... "Spaceviews" that have been converted from watches that were never issued by Bulova as Spaceview models...but the dials were removed and cheesy aftermarket crystals and hands were installed to feed the hungry"Spaceview" market. If you want to nearly guarantee that you buy a Fakeview...look for the Chop Shops in CA, GA, VA, FL, IL, Seattle, Bulgaria and the UK (now PA is in the mix... and even stating that the aftermarket parts he installs are "correct!" or "genuine Clark!!!"). :(They spit them out, by the dozens every month, to unsuspecting buyers for profit... thereby ruining classic collectible watches by the thousands.Why buy junk? Why feed the destructive beast? I use the Mobius products that were specified by Bulova and I install new gaskets.I work on these the Old School way. I am not a Part Time Hobbyist doing this after my day job... and I see no reason to alter these... it only decreases their value.The goal is to get these right... so that we can enjoy and preserve these Historic works of Horology/Engineering/Art. I send these out double boxed to protect them, with a multi page Instruction Set, an extra battery, insured, with Signature Confirmation Service... and I hand deliver them to USPS for receipt in hand so that we are BOTH covered!I do these RIGHT because I LOVE them. If you want cheap, badly thrown together FAKE CRAP at a "low" price point... I'm NOT "your guy!"There are plenty of people out there destroying classic Accutrons... would you accept this behavior for cigars, cars, watches, etc.?! SAVE the 214! Be the ONLY one on YOUR block! NOTE!No strap or bracelet is included on the watch... I'm glad to help, answer any questions and chat about these beauties... and install any strap or bracelet that you purchase from my listings. I have plenty of vintage straps and bracelets here that will fit this beauty. Search under "11/16" and "18mm" here... https://www.ebay.com/str/rsot4812?_bkw=11%2F16%22
