Huck - Accutron made two primary movements for their tuning fork watches. Their 214 movement that is in most Spaceviews was called a "backset" because the watch was set by flipping up a lever on the back. Many of the Spaceviews on the 'bay are created by just removing the dial of an ordinary 214 and installing new hands and crystal. The price of the watch you noted is overpriced by quite a bit IMO. You can get really nice Spaceviews for less that $400 if you shop. All 214 movements ( escept in the Astronaut) are the same. Here are three of mine. The one on the top is a somewhat more rare 218 Spaceview with the crown at 4 o-clock. Attachment: spaceviews 002.JPG (Downloaded 42 times)
