The Accutron Watch Page

"The Watch That Hums!"

A Warm Welcome to All Tuning Fork Enthusiasts!

This site is devoted to one thing only - Technical Information on Bulova Accutrons and other tuning fork watches. After 21 years on-line, the Accutron Watch Page remains completey free and contains no other advertising, cookies, scripts or annoying pop-ups.

Give your hummer a new lease on life! The Accutron Watch Page repair service continues to provide repair and restoration services for your Tuning Fork watch in 2018!

Why pay more to get your classic Accutron working as it should! And YES! any accutron that has been serviced and is in good mechanical condition can keep time to within ORIGINAL factory specs of +/- 2 seconds per day. Note, to achieve the Bulova advertized spec of 1 minute per month, your watch may need to be regulated to suit your particular wearing style.

Please Note: Due to changes in the taxation laws here, I have been forced to increase my service and repair charges a little, as of October 22nd 2018. My sincere apologies for this.

I will repair any Accutron or TF watch for $120.00 + $10 shipping and free battery (parts extra). (Speedsonic Chronographs are $70 extra). What does a service entail? For a description of what I do when I service an Accutron, click here.

Other Services: High quality case refinishing for Stainless Steel or Gold/gold Filled or Gold Plate cases of all types. Other restoration services include providing high quality refinishing and replating of the watch movement itself in nickel, gold or rhodium. I also repair other vintage watches too, especially American pocket and wrist watches, as well as chronographs and other complications.

We are now rewinding dead Accutron 214 coils! Coils are sold on an exchange basis, as we re-use the old plastic formers. They are stripped of their old wire, cleaned and re-wound with new wire. The coils are fully tested and work to original Bulova specifications. click here for more information.
