About Accutron
Accutron began in 1960 as Bulova's answer to the balance wheel: the world's first electronic watch, driven by a 360Hz tuning fork instead of a mainspring, accurate to a minute a month. Engineer Max Hetzel's design became a genuine cultural fixture — NASA flight computers ran on Accutron movements, and astronauts wore them to the Moon. Bulova shelved the tuning fork caliber in 1980 as quartz took over, but in 2020 relaunched Accutron as its own brand for the 60th anniversary, picking the mission back up with watches built around electrostatic movements. It's a brand built on one idea: throw out the conventional mechanism and find a more accurate way to keep time.
