Watch Description

Recently found this Accutron (old inventory) that has never been worn.  It's a battery operated (tuning fork), runs good, and the case is 14K white gold.  Do you have any idea what model this is and or/year?

Agreed. The dial bearing a tuning fork appears to date to the movement (1971). Case is likely from a 542 or 544, with a later movement and dial style.

Agreed, There are a few things going on with the watch.Possible mix of parts. But using the case as a base ID, lets go with a 1961 Bulova Accutron.
