@bulova @accutronwatch holds a significant name in history of watch making. @wadesworldofwatches from @thewatchpreserve is showing us a museum quality 1967 Accutron Astronaut that was secret A-12 spy plane watch.

Finding a New Old Stock example with its original JB Champion ‘bullet’ bracelet, box, and papers in 2026 is almost impossible but The Watch Preserve has it

Would you wear this 1960s space age icon or keep it in the box like as a museum piece? Drop your takes below.

Correct model, wrong version of the watch. The ones used for those missions by the pilots originally had cathedral hands on a no lume dial. They were made especially for those men. Nearly impossible to find. Without a doubt the rarest and most historically significant accutron. There is a picture of one somebody has on watch talk forums i believe.
