My father had an accutron when I was 7. For me it was my dad’s watch and it was the only humming watch around me ! I was so proud.

He had a 218 movement. Then I grew up and red about the 214 Space View. I was totally blown away by such modernity and simplicity (12 moving parts).

I made music for a lot of watch brands : tag Heuer, urwerk, Baume, zenith, Vuitton, Chanel, EBEL etc.

The 2020 came and I get obsessed by the 2020 Accutron model (which doesn’t hum so it’s sad for a musician like me 🤣) and when I turned 50 it was mine ! When you have a 1966 model, it’s a « must » to have the 2020 too ! 😉👍🏻
