About Accutron Watches

Accutron, a tour de force in horology, is famous for defying tradition by eliminating the "balance wheel and hairspring" in favor of cutting-edge electrostatic technology. The magic of Accutron Watches in their see-through dials reveals the electrostatic motor that propels these timepieces to the pinnacle of precision.
As a titan in the luxury watch market, Accutron invites you to witness time reimagined—a journey where innovation delivers, craftsmanship quivers, and the heart shivers in response to the sheer artistry, groundbreaking concepts, and timeless design of its watches.

Accutron History

The history of Accutron watches traces back to the innovative spirit of Bulova, a renowned watchmaking company founded by Bohemian immigrant Joseph Bulova in New York City in 1875.
In the mid-20th century, during the 1950s, precision in timekeeping became increasingly crucial. The demand for highly accurate watches gained prominence, particularly in fields where precision was paramount, such as aviation, space exploration, and various scientific endeavors.
Bulova, with its commitment to precision, recognized the evolving needs of the timekeeping landscape and sought to push the boundaries of horology. This led to the inception of the first Accutron watch, the Ref. 214, in 1960.
The timepiece introduced a groundbreaking technology – the tuning fork movement. This innovation replaced mechanical watches' traditional balance wheel and escapement mechanism, offering unparalleled accuracy. The tuning fork, powered by an electrostatic motor, allowed the Accutron to achieve an astonishing precision of ±1 minute per month, a feat that was truly groundbreaking in an era dominated by less accurate timepieces.
The introduction of the Accutron watch was met with astonishment and acclaim. It not only surpassed the accuracy of its mechanical counterparts but also became a symbol of technological prowess. This precision did not go unnoticed in critical sectors; the Accutron watch found applications in various industries, including aviation, where accurate timekeeping was crucial for navigation, and later in space exploration.
One of the notable moments in Accutron's history was its selection as the timing device for the Apollo program. The precision of Accutron watches played a vital role in ensuring accurate timing during space missions, contributing to the success of the Apollo program. Accutron's impact extended beyond the realms of space. The watches earned certification for use by U.S. railroads in 1962, emphasizing their reliability in critical timekeeping applications. This further solidified Accutron's reputation as a pioneer in precision timekeeping.
