Today I am presenting for review another very nice early Bulova Accutron 214. This is the 1960 Bulova Accutron Model '204' Style# 21010. It is Stainless Steel with 14kt Gold Chevrons. This accutron Model is the Black Dial variant. This watch does have the correct 1960 (M0) movement (no date stamp) and correct caseback.
This unique case is also known to sport a Cream Dial and is known as Model 203 Style #21009. It seems the Black Dial version may be a bit more rare. Consensus seems to agree that this case was only dated 1960 which puts it in a small group of limited production date Accutrons. This accutron has the unique feature of the stamping (Star Watch Case Company) inside the caseback. Overall a very unique Bulova watch. It just so happens I own two of them as pictured below. Both are identical Model 204s with 1960 (M0) movements. If I am not mistaken, one of them was purchased from a myBulova Panel member. These watches are not for sale and will be staying in my collection. I do have some reference material to present but haven't seen a specific Line Catalog image of this particular early Model watch but it does appear on both the 1961 & 1964 Bulova Price Lists ($175.00). I am curious if this panel can find a Line Catalog image and description. Thanks and Enjoy!
