Still my one owner (me), my 57-year old Accutron 214. As a result of numerous “transplants” over the past 40 years (circuits, index wheels, tuning forks, crystals, etc.), still looks and runs like new. But on Saturday morning, I found it
stopped! Cell, I thought. Checked the cell, and it was good! Uh Oh, I thought. Another transplant? I had been running it on a modified Accu-Cell for a year. So I popped in a standard 1.55 volt cell, and “Bob’s your uncle!” It’s been fine ever since.
