This is a great article about the history of the quartz watch and Bulova's role as the first to mass produce a quartz watch. The article claims the The Bulova Accuquartz Cal. 224 was the first mass-market quartz wristwatch

Tem razão, Geoff. Parabéns Jim Don pelo teu trabalho de investigação. É sempre bom saber mais alguma coisa sobre estes magníficos relógios Bulova.
The Accuquartz came in three flavors:
- 2240 - No date or day
- 2241 - Date only
- 2242 - Date and day
I find it very interesting that the original CEH Swiss Beta 21 movement for Bulova was a 10EACD.
