 Accurist is a "timeless British Classic"
They made some funny adverts in the 70's and a remake not long ago both with John Cleese.
My wife got me one last Christmas and its fairly cool


So here are a few funny adverts for Accurist from 1978 it may make you giggle.

 Yes its a Quartz movement and I look after it so I dont use it for yard work etc, I think its around 42mm but fairly thin. It was agift from my wife so it gets looked after well. Its a Japanese movement.
