·Hello,
I am saw this Bulova Accutron Spaceview 214 1966 on eBay. I was recently introduced to the watch and really super like the look of them . I have copied the dicription from the ad and the pictures.
“1966 Bulova Accutron Space View Crystal with the 214 tuning fork Movement. The watch has been serviced in the past 12 months (by a retired bulova dealer shop left overs) but is not keeping time or running(not humming). Will need service again, a beautiful watch. For a almost 52 year old watch, it surely is a rare item and one not to be missed. THIS IS A STUNNING WATCH. Fits a 6.5 to a 8 inch wrist.
The photos taken are of the item presently for sale.”
I also sent the guy a message saying
“Hello there . I am inquiring about your 1966 Bulova Accutron 214. It is says in the description.
“The watch has been serviced in the past 12 months (by a retired bulova dealer shop left overs) ”
Does this mean that the watch is made up of spare parts or am I mistaken ?
Also can you provide purchase papers , service receipts , records and does the watch come with a Bullova Aunthenticated box ?
Regards and Thankyou for your time .

“No, I bought out the repair shop was a customers watch, the box said repaired this was before the owner pass away. The watches have been sitting for all this time some worked and many did not. Even though it said ready for pick up, we do not know thecircumstance. Please read the whole estimate if it is running and keeping time or will not hum or run. This one is not running.”
My questions are . Does it look genuine ? I am not very familiar with this make .
The humming not working , is that a difficult job to fix . Would it be a DIY as I am have done some repairs on my other watches or would it need to go to service ? Any guesses on how much it would cost to fix ?
Thanks guys appreciated this !
