The Accutron, made since 1960, was the world's first electronic watch and the first to use a bipolar transistor. It was used by U.S. astronauts on the first trip to space because of its accuracy of 2 seconds per day and 1 minute per month. This watch, including the crystal, case and winding stem, is in excellent condition, needing only a replacement battery (silver oxide or mercury). It will be sent in its original crepe covered and velvet-and-satin lined presentation case (a collectible item in and of itself). The exterior of the case shows some darkening from age. This is a great gift item which could be re-inscribed for yourself or a loved one. (Price is somewhat negotiable. Contact us with questions or reaonable offers.) |
