The Accutron Astronaut I 71960 M3 is part of the iconic Accutron Astronaut series, made by Bulova during the 1960s. These watches are renowned for their innovative tuning fork movement, which was revolutionary at the time and offered unparalleled precision compared to traditional mechanical watches.

The Accutron Astronaut series is highly collectible, and models like the 71960 with M3 coding from the early 1960s are especially sought after due to their historical significance.

 

 

Accutron Astruanaut l 71960 M3 with signed dial and a recent fully in depth documented service in 2023 with the watch being from 1963. Complete with original bracelet.

This  is a great example of an early original Accutron Astruanaut l 71960 M3

38mm stainless steel case with steel rotating bezel. Black dial with beautifully naturally aged hands and hour markers that have gone a wonderful creamy yellow colour over time which appears to be original as do the hands.

Replacement acrylic crystal added at recent service.

Fitted to original steel coffin link bracelet and folding clasp to fit a wrist snugly up to 7.5inches.

This Bulova powered watch has remarkable history having been used by Nasa for various satellite missions to space. It was the tuning folk technology that won Bulova this prestigious accolade and so this watch and its movement should rightly have a place in history alongside the much more famous Omega Speedmaster ‘Moonwatch’.

Complete and very though service papers accompany this watch.
