ORIGINAL 1970S RETRO WATCH

TITUS TUNING FORK ELECTRONIC F300Hz REF    AG08183

A rare treat for all you electric watch lovers - classic 1970s watch using the latest electronic technology and the cutting edge of its time . This is serious quality and these electronic watches are getting very collectable . The movement is based around Bullova's Accutron system of using a tuning fork that is vibrated by small electro magnets and the vibrations are used as the power source for the watches mechanical movement . Serious collectors out there will notice this is named Titus on the dial but is identical in every respect to a model by Omega . In fact is the same watch but marketed under a different name . It is extremely accurate and allowed Omega to market there’s with a chronometer badge . Swiss made and it really shows with this fantastic build quality , being hewed out of solid stainless steel for the case and bracelet . It is very heavy and you certainly know it is on your wrist . This model is brand new and old stock that has been in storage since the 1970s . Mint with not a single scratch or mark anywhere. Time is shown on a sunken dial in black finish and furnished with smart chrome/white batons and a quick set date . It is running perfectly and holding time ( here the classic Accutron humming when you put it to your ear ) . Fits up to a huge 8" wrist and large dimensions all round on this serious mans retro watch .
