Accutron Dates, how to tell the age of a Bulova Watch

Accutron is a very beautiful and special watch.
By far, just like most people, I am not an expert on Bulova Accutron, so I hope this helps.

Dating Accutron is simple and it works for both regular Accutron, Spaceview, 218 Accutron and some other watches as well.

Each watch has a serial number and underneath a 2 digit age marker made up of one letter and one number...Here goes:

A9 = 1949 (this was the first dating done)L0-L9 - 1950's, L0 = 1950, L1 = 1951..... L9 = 1959M0-M9 - 1960's, M0 = 1960, M1 = 1961....etc... toM6 = 1966, etc.N0-N9 - 1970's. N3 = 1973, etc.

Thank you for your time and please don't forget to rate me!

Watch Care: Tips for Keeping Your Timepiece Timeless

This guide provides you with some simple tips on how to keep your timepiece in immaculate condition.

Temperature Care

Avoid temperature extremes. Exposing your watch to high temperatures, such as placing it on a dashboard of a vehicle, or use in a hot tub, may cause the watch to malfunction, shorten battery life or damage certain components. Leaving the watch in extreme cold temperatures may cause irregular timekeeping until the watch returns to normal operating temperature.

Watch Cleaning

For maximum performance, you should wipe your watch with a clean soft cloth, regularly. Stains, water spots and accumulated dirt on the case, crystal and bank that are not removed may cause premature wear. If you use your watch in the shower, or in chlorinated or salt water, you should rinse it with fresh water and thoroughly dry it afterwards.

Care for Metal Bracelets

To extend the life and maintain the good appearance of a metal watch bracelet, the following are recommended:
• Be aware that since the watch and bracelet is worn next to the skin, it collects dust and perspiration and becomes soiled if not cleaned regularly. This is particularly true of the inner parts of the links or mesh of the bracelet.
• Soil and rust, when present in a bracelet, are dissolved by perspiration and can cause staining of cuffs and irritation of the skin in some instances.
• Heavy perspiration should be wiped off the watch and bracelet with a soft dry cloth. The bracelet should be cleaned occasionally by using a soft brush and warm soapy water after which the soap is thoroughly rinsed with clear water and the bracelet dried completely. The foregoing manner of cleaning should not be done if the watch is not water-resistant but should instead be done by your jeweler.

Care for Straps
Leather:
• Heavy perspiration, if not removed from a leather strap, can wash out the natural oils and cause the leather to become dry and deteriorate. Any moisture should be blotted with a soft cloth or paper towel and the strap allowed to dry naturally.
• Salt residue and soil can be removed from the leather by cleaning with a dampened soft cloth and mild soap or saddle soap.
• Occasionally, the inside surface of the strap should be cleaned by using a soft cloth dampened with alcohol.
• The strap should always be worn a little loosely (one finger space between wrist and strap) to allow air to circulate thus allowing any moisture to evaporate.

Rubber:
• Rubber straps should be washed frequently with mild soap and warm water using a soft brush.
• Thorough cleaning, using the same method, should especially be done after use in salt water.
• Solvents, oils, perspiration, tanning lotion and salt can cause rubber to deteriorate if not removed

Hope this information was helpful.

How do I avoid mis-identifying a real watch as a fake?

Fine watch makers such as Rolex, Omega , IWC, Breitling, Cartier and others have made thousands of models over the past century. Many older models look similar enough to current or other models that their differences can be mistaken as signs of a fake. Similarly, manufacturers sometimes made some unusual or custom versions for specific International markets that would be unknown or seem odd even to people experienced with that brand of watch in their part of the world.

So how do you tell when a watch is really a real one? The number one test is to find the manufacturer's serial number. On modern Omega watches, the 8-digit serial number is laser etched on the outside of the watch--usually on the back of one of the lugs, or on the back of the case. On older Omega watches, the number is still 8 digits, but almost always inside the watch, engraved into the movement. Rolex watches normally have their model and serial numbers on the ouside side of the case, between the lugs where the bracelet or strap attach.

The presence of a correctly engraved or laser etched serial number is often enough to confirm the watch is real--except for fake Rolex watches that often do bear fake serial numbers. The next step is to have the manufacturer validate the serial number. It is best if you can also include a photo of the watch with your request. They will respond with the technical details that you can use to confirm that the serial number does indeed belong to that watch.

Even if the watch is genuine, having a manufacturer's representative check the serial number and view the watch or a photo of it can also identify if the watch has been altered. Especially on older watches, they may have had their dials repainted (sometime to completely different color combinations) or had exterior replacement parts (especially crowns and bracelets) that were not original to that specific model.

Some things you may not know about Automatic watches

Firstly, why is Switzerland considered to be the best country of manufacture? Switzerland is considered the pioneer nation for quality watches, and its industry is renowned internationally as having superlative expertise in watchmaking. Most luxury watches are logically made in Switzerland. German movements are however also highly regarded.

What are the popular Automatic movements? For 3-hand movements (these are hours, minutes, and seconds) Ronda is a typical choice, for Chronographs (watches with extra timing functions) the ETA Valjoux 7750 is ubiquitous and for good reason, today these movements have 25 Jewels. Jewels are bearings used to increase the accuracy of operation. Originally actual Jewels, they are now usually synthetic.

Other Automatic variations include Tourbillion, this works against the effects of gravity to increase the accuracy of the movement. The regulating mechanism is housed in its own rotating cage. A Complication movement is one that has a literally complicated array of functionality typically displaying extra time measurements (such as day, month, year, leap year, moonphase). The term ‘Chronometer’ means that the watch has a movement which is certified as highly accurate by the ‘C.O.S.C’ - Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres. This term is often misued to mean ‘Chronograph’ or a marketing term for a movement which is actually not certfied at all. Rolex were originally famed for making precision timepieces, now most of their watches are officially certified (the C.O.S.C’s most frequent customer!), and known as ‘Superlative Chronometers’.

Finally, what is the best watch? The best watch is the one that makes you feel good about yourself.

Swatch Watch Battery Chart

Most SWATCH Wrist Watches have batteries that can easily be changed by the average person. In fact, that's how they were designed! Here is a general guide to selecting the correct Battery for your SWATCH. Don't worry too much about letters in front of battery numbers. They used to matter more, but most companies have gone to "multi-drain" batteries and it no longer matters as much.

There are two ways to locate your battery number: The back cover of your watch or the battery itself. I have a table below to help you.

Installation: As an extra service, I include a FREE illustrated and written guide to battery installation for Swatch as well as virtually ALL types of watches when you purchase your new ENERGIZER batteries from my store, Watchinghour

Lastly, be sure to recycle your old Watch Batteries and dispose of properly.

Here is a chart of SWATCH Styles, Battery Numbers, and Swatch Watch Covers
