Product Details
The Accutron Spaceview returns with their groundbreaking tuning fork technology that redefined time. Inspired by the original 1960’s model, the Spaceview 314 has a 39mm polished 904L stainless steel case with straight lugs and a crown at 4 o’clock and is paired with a black padded Italian calf leather strap with a double-press fold over clasp for a sleek and comfortable presence.
The new, hand-assembled Accutron Calibre Y230 is accurate to within two seconds per day, vibrating at 360hz to create the tuning fork’s signature F-sharp hum and smooth sweeping second hand.
Providing an unobstructed view of the movement, a domed sapphire crystal sits over the open dial, which features a silver-tone chapter ring with LumiNova hour markers and a matching handset. The movement is completed with modern materials such as silicium and Elinvar for improved efficiency and durability. Refined details include anglage and perlage with Côtes de Genève and frosted finishings are seen through the sapphire crystal. Experience an icon of watchmaking history made modern with the Accutron Spaceview 314.
Making a quantum leap, Max Hetzel, the Switzerland-based electronics engineering genius, made the first breakthrough advance in timekeeping in 300 years. By substituting the traditional main spring and balance wheels with electronic transistor circuitry, he pioneered tuning fork technology, making it the world’s first fully electronic watch aptly dubbed “Accu-tron” for accuracy through electronics.
In 1960, Accutron changed timekeeping forever with its tuning fork movement. Its smooth sweeping seconds hand and signature hum marked a revolution in precision. Today, the Spaceview 314 honours that legacy with modern craftsmanship and timeless innovation, marked with its signature F-sharp hum.
