Mike, I saw that in one of the Watch Magazines, I have to try and look it up, but I think that one was in the 3K range, which I thought was a little outragous. |

It is all hand made as none of the original tooling is left. This is one of my total grails! One of the originals: Attachment: spaceview.jpg 003.JPG (Downloaded 82 times) |

Why pay this ugly new price for a reedition when you can have an original NOS for less money? Anyway, too much plastic for me: The era when everybody thought that bakelite and electronic was "THE THING" for watches...Is gone. And there's no mistery in that. |

I really like the Accutron Spaceview and have promised myself that I will get one, one day... The re-edition is special, but not $4k worth of special, IMHO. BUT - you DO get a plaque and a box... In the photos on the web, I notice that the case is "triangulated" and the lugs are like a version of the old "bow-tie" lugs. The website does not, as far as I can tell, show us the case dimensions of the new re-edition hand-made model. Problem with the oldies is that they are in the middle-30 mms in width, and for me these days that is a bit small. There is a squarer cased version at about 40mm, and that is probably the one I will eventually shoot down. I will keep looking... Love the "hummers"! Cheers all - IanM |
