·1963 (M3) Accutron Astronaut with box and some papers, including registration card.
Sep. 2022 service including new old stock service board. Six month transferable warranty.
Includes extra vintage Champion Komfit bracelet. The watch is on a coffin bracelet that is not original to the watch. The bracelet is marked Hong Kong, which was not delivered by Bulova on 1963 Astronauts, although the 1963 Astronaut did come with coffin style bracelets.
Note the nick on the bezel at the 24 hour. The bezel turns correctly (you should push it down before turning).
Also note that there is lume missing from the minute hand that appears to be stuck on the index at 9 o'clock.
The crystal is scratched.
This is not a complete set but is a fairly complete set. This is the only time I have seen a registration card. I am selling this because I replaced it with a complete set (less registration card) from a son whose father worked with NASA. The set I am selling was my best reference until I came across its replacement. I am attempting to have one version of a watch because I enjoy being married.
The 1963 Accutron Astronauts are nice to have because they did not have the Bulova on the dial and were the references worn by astronauts and pilots. Kindof like the 105.012 65 Speedmaster is the most authentic moon watch.
Price is $1095 USD, shipping to Canada and USA included.
Returns are allowed if this ad misrepresented the condition. Thank you to the OF mods for making this sale possible. My references are searchable.
