Finally got a chance to size and set the Accutron Telluride which arrived earlier this week from JTV. Big thanks to Tony Duronio for the excellent enabling which allowed a good number of us to grab one of the neat watches at an unbelievable price. Well, what more can be said?:shock:

After taking a few minutes to actually read a manual and follow instructions I've discovered the joy of this slick multi-function piece. This is really a great sport watch which is extremely versatile. The majority of the time I'll wear this as a standard 3-hander with/without digital date but at the flick (well stated Mike!;)) of the crown I'll have multiple functions at my fingertips. The X factor is the fantastic styling imho which elevates this watch beyond a mere gadget watch. The watch wears at a very flexible size imo. The supplied strap and deployant are a nice combo after being cut down. I am supremely happy to have grabbed this watch at this price!yahoo.gif

 

One thing I can add to all that's been said about the fantastic crystal is its fantastic AR coating which appears to be from the same stock as the AR placed on another all-time steal watch, the Accutron VX200. I captured it pretty well in the second pic below...

Thanks for having a look.:D

Looks good Pax...excellent on the wrist. Many have questioned the size but I'm more concerned anymore with lug to lug and this one achieves, at least in appearance; I haven't measured ; 48+MM..to me anything over that plays at a good size.

I'm loving this thing for a lot of reasons

Congrats on yours budyourock.gifThumbsUp02.gif

I have yet to confirm this, but look at this dial and tell me it's display is any different than our $99 dealhand6.gif My money is on it being the same movement.

BTW...we only saved $2750Thumbsup3.gif

I believe the Telluride movement is an ETA20.321

Found in:
Breitling (early aerospace?)
Omega 1666 calibre was an adaption? (for the X-33 and Seamaster 120mf)
Tag Heuer Kirium F1 and Aquaracer.
Precista prs-24?
Montblanc Sport
Victorinox Swiss Army Hunter Mach 3


Before mine arrives I'm going to lay out a few Ebay auctions of the above showing £££, then let SWMBO hit the roof before she sees the $99 tag.

I believe you are correct. That's the movement # I have for the Tag. Trying to confirm about the Accutron.

...and as many have said I also believe this uses the ETA E20.231 movement.
Hope we can link on the forum, here is a pdf manual of above movement.
