offshore Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 Here is a write up on it. Entirely Swiss Made Automatic Jeweled Movement![sp]Exhibition Back on the Bulova Gemini Automatic Chronograph To those of us who remember Accutron as the watch that completely revolutionized the entire world of watchmaking with the introduction of the electronic tuning fork oscillator watch back in 1967, the very idea of an Accutron with a "mechanical" movement seems, well, impossible! After all, Accutron begain the battery operated electronic watch revolution![sp]A great match for both professional settings and sporty casual couture, this Accutron Gemini 2 tone stainless steel men's[sp] (model 28A116) matches an elegant design with the powerfully precise, 26 jewel[sp] Self-Winding[sp] automatic movement. Close-up of the Accutron Gemini 28A116 The Gemini Collection combines the very best in old world craftsmanship and great artistic design. Notice the attention to fine detail in the guilloche dial with highly polished dial markers and subdials. Each watch is carved from solid 2 tone stainless steel with a graceful curved design. Each is then fitted with a slightly domed, scratch resistant sapphire crystal. Not one single detail is overlooked.[sp]This is a beautiful watch by Accutron from its Gemini Automatic Collection timepiece has an exhibition caseback,tuning fork applique adorning sub-skeleton window at 12 O'Clock Automatic, self-winding mechanical movement, Oscillators with skeleton tuning fork design. This watch from Accutron's Gemini Collection features a Swiss Made Self-Winding 26-Jewel Automatic Movement, 40mm 2 tone stainless steel case and see-through exhibition screwdown caseback. Sapphire crystals on both the front and back of the watch. Dial features luminous gold tone hands, gold tone Roman numerals, a tuning fork applique adorning sub-skeleton window at 12 O'Clock. Water resistant to 100 meters.[sp] This watch features entirely Swiss Made Jeweled Movement! I'll go out on a limb here, and guess that the "Swiss' movement, originates in China! Seems strange that Bulova would detract from the original Accutron brand by now calling a mech an Accutron. Good looking watch, whatever way its made.

jchurch Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 SW200? But I thought those were 26 jewel movements not 25 jewel ones. I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
