.... but not to Accutrons! Completed the purchase of this watch earlier today. Saw it while browsing on The Bay for Accutron watch boxes and found it interesting. Don't have a lot of info on it but the case date is M6 and it is supposed to be in the original box and to have the original Speidel band. I found it interesting that the Speidel banner is still on the box top. The watch has a 17J mechanical, manual wind mvt. Very interesting interlaced ring and square bezel area design! Case is 10K RGP and supposedly in very good condition. I need to do more research to find out the model name. Pics are poor and from seller.

Wow Oliverb, nice catch. That is indeed unusual and eye-catching.

Thanks guys. I wasn't looking for any more Bulova mechanical watches but that one jumped out at me. The starting price was reasonable and no one else bid on it. Still haven't identified the model but I'm working on it.

Hmm.... Do I want to wear a square watch today, or a round one? I just can't decide! :001_tongue:

I was hoping you would check out the watch. I had searched the adds on mybulova but couldn't find the watch. It's great to know the model. Also good to have proof of the original band. When I receive it and can take more pics I will post on mybulova. Thanks!

I don't really like it.

The box is another matter. The Bulova/Speidel sash is much more interesting touch. One hand washes the other.....

It is a different design and that's why I kinda like it. Yeh, I thought having the banner still on the box was unique!

I love that case, and it is a superb design, in a kind of "Mobius strip" way. Get those pics posted buddy!
