Review: The Accutron DNA

Before jumping into this new, forward-looking watch, let’s rewind back to the 1960’s for a minute.  With the start of the 1960’s, a new type of watch was invented. One that was guaranteed to be 99.9977% accurate on your wrist with a silky smooth gliding seconds hand, that ran on a power cell for up to a whole YEAR without needing replacement (okay, this was more impressive in 1960 than it is today, but bear with me). With the Space Race about to really take off, it was hard not to get caught up in the mania. Bulova’s Accutron Spaceview was no exception. With its tuning fork, visible coils, wires running throughout, and gears on display, the Spaceview was unlike any other watches out there.
