Amazing church sale find. 14KT solid gold case with awesome Roman numeral hour marker bezel and M9 date code. Gilt dial with Black inserts. Accutron 2182 movement. Running great. 1969 Bulova Day & Date "C" like these.

Yes it has the fork second hand. Not sure if it was original or a dealer installed upgrade.
A rare find indeed!

dont forget the fork on second hand, its just too much!!! i literaly melt for this hand design 😍😍😍
The non-rotating Bezel Ring with roman numerals is very rare. I believe this ring can be removed which holds the high dome crystal with locking ring. So a crystal replacement must at all costs be done by a professional. Heirlooms found are everywhere with old Accutrons, most don't know what they have. I have actually received in my shop 214 and 218s with original factory installed mercury batteries.
Great find, but if you ever sell it for a huge profit maybe a good idea to donate part of your profits back to your church?
Just a thought

Thanks JV. I have no plans on selling this watch. The sale was not a church sale but a sale at a church parking lot. That being said I am quite generous and make every effort to earn good karma. I do need to read out to you soon as I have a few Accutrons that need service.
