N76 Accuquartz, 2242 movement.
The most distinctive feature of the watch are the faceted crystal and reflective blue dial, which has vertical striations. Even a slight movement of the watch or eye position changes the appearance of the dial.
The crystal has three facets, with the edges of the three facets forming two horizontal lines. The hands will occasionally appear to have a lightning bolt shape as they pass under a facet edge.
The 224 series movement is regulated using a series of six tuning capacitors located on the crown side of the movement. The lowest position is for coarse adjustment, with gradually finer degrees of adjustment provided by the other positions going upwards. The presence of a screw in a position slows the mechanism by a prescribed amount. Those screws are extremely small even for watch screws, 0.5 mm in diameter.
I have seen photos of similar Accuquartz watches with a brown dial and gold tone case.
This watch came to me with a blue Accutron Corfam strap. I replaced it with the tuning fork branded bracelet you see here.
