Accutron Watches Bulova Accutron 218 'Jumbo' Day-Date - (Ref. 40992952/AS11772) Product Details

Overall Condition: Good condition overall. Case appears to be unpolished and shows wear associated with age. Dial and handset are in good condition showing light and even patina.

In the early 1970s, the future didn’t tick — it hummed.

This 1960s Bulova Accutron 218 “Jumbo” (dial code N0) is a reminder that the Space Age wasn’t all silver and white—it had depth, warmth, and serious design confidence. Housed in a sharp, stainless steel case with crisp edges and original factory finishing intact, this is the kind of honest survivor collectors hope for.

This case captures the aesthetic of the 1970s to the T. A brilliant stainless steel cushion case is coupled with square lume plots and a day date function at 3. This piece has a decidedly industrial feel in it size and execution.

The signed crown—correctly bearing the Accutron tuning fork logo—anchors the case at 4 o’clock. Inside beats the later Caliber 218 tuning fork movement, widely regarded as one of the more robust executions of Bulova’s revolutionary electronic platform. Instead of ticking, the seconds hand glides in a perfectly smooth sweep, powered by vibration rather than escapement.

The Accutron line famously found its way onto the wrists of astronauts, pilots, and even into cockpit instrumentation, cementing its reputation as the watch of the electronic age. This 218 Day-Date captures that spirit in a form that feels both forward-thinking and distinctly vintage.

The sound of 1970, still resonating. The Accutron 218 isn’t just a watch—it’s a piece of American technological optimism.
