Does anyone have a value for this particular (214 model) watch; I bought my father one in 1966 and still have it in its original box. I haven't seen any models of this type for sale. It has sat for a number of years, I took it to the jeweler yesterday, had the crystal and battery replaced, still runs good and keeps time. Any info on this model would be appreciated. Thanks, Steve

Thanks for the reply, my watch is the same as the one pictured, back of the case is M6, I found this to be 1966 and the serial number K12756. Is this model rare or just one of the basic Accutron watchs, I have not been able to find one on Ebay or any other watch web site other than this one that matches this type. Any more information on this model?? Thanks, Steve
