Hi Cruvon, I've got pics...
Hi Cruvon,
I've got pics of perhaps 30% of them. Sadly i was very late to the digital photographic age so most of my pics are later ones taken by sellers or by myself. It wasnt until i joined this forum in 2007 that i realised how important photographing the watches was.
The very last hummer to sell was an m0 alpha in 14kt gold, not a spaceview, but had the original production run dial which was only used twice. First run and 1969 last run of the 214 alpha.
My spaceview was an original, but as you rightly say they were too small for regular wear. I should have kept some of my omega f300's like the seamaster diver, speedsonic and constellation. They are a size more wearable today.
Anyway, they are in the past and its best to dwell on the future and only look back on the past fondly.
There was another post about tuning forks a couple of years ago and i posted pics then so if you try to learn your way around the search system and have a few days to spare you will find it with my pics on it.
I cant give you the link as i have no idea when it was.
Best
G

well,pics of 30% is still awesome, I can imagine entering a room with that many Accutrons humming, that might have been really audible. Inspite of having only 4 spaceviews, they are quite audible when togather without having to touch my ear to them:). eeh...

I 'think' they did the Alpha in steel, but not in 1960. When i moved in 2004, i had in excess of 200 watches and had to transport them myself. I boxed all the hummers up in 1 box and you could hear the box humming in the back of the car. It kept my dogs i...

And I'm glad that they made with 42mm. This excludes my daughter, that is an active Accutron collector but with a tiny wrist. If I bump on one of those, finally I may catch an Accutron that I can keep (instead of being "kidnapped" by my daughter as all ot...

well reproduced. About the price, am sure Bulova wouldn't have made a huge profit on it considering they made only 1000, redesigning the movement from the ground up, handmade and with beautiful plexi case and box. It was more a advertising thing for them ...

the case design is the same as was in the first version of the Spaceview in 1960/61. Here's a picture I got off the web for you of the 1961 version with the same "Alpha" case called so for the obvious Alpha like shape:), is in 14kt white gold. The only di...
