Thanks for your help!
Cool watch. I note that the N5 date code is for 1975, not 1965, I've updated the record. In 1965 Accutron only used the 218 movement, which did not utilize a standard winding crown. The case shape of your watch is a representation of the Accutron tuning fork. I know that this case style was used for the 1975 Centenary watches (Bulova's 100 anniversary) but I think all the Centenary watches had "100" on the dial. I haven't found a match (yet) to a known model and wonder if the two letter day designation is an indicator of the origin. Normally, Date/Day models have a three letter day abbreviation. For now...1975 Bulova Date and Day Accutron
