Yea Mike. Keep 'em coming...
Another fine Accutron quartz.
Would we call it the "Time Zone"? Or just "TZ"?
An Accutron Quartz for which we may have a mode name "Time Zone". I wonder if Time Zone is an advertised model name or a series of these 242 models? Sounds like a feature, but I'm not sure what feature "time zone" would be?
EDIT: Does time zone refer to a feature/function which allows the user to move back (or forward) only the hour hand in one hour increments?
Accutron Quartz for certain. Not to sure on the "TZ" designation. Do you have some documentation on that Mike?
I've included some info from the 242 Service Manual. It states the Time Zone was a feature, seen only in the 2426.10 model (no Day window). This model number can be identified under the battery - current photos do not provide us that.
Another nice Accutron Quartz (possible Calendar, if we wanted to distinguish from other Accutron Qtz)
In reply to I've included some info from by Andersok
Great Info Ken! We have used "Calendar" and "Day & Date" for others. It would be a nice distinction for this/these Accutron Quartz model(s).
Very nice. Accutron Quartz
Movement caliber stamp 2426.10 in battery well, as per service manual.

Time Zone model. 1979 ad.
"C" in the advert.
Bob - I don't read this ad as specifically naming this watch "Time Zone". If it did, it seems the names of the other watches would be "Goldtone" Underwater" and "Stainless".
I'm staying with Accutron Quartz
