WHY WE LOVE IT? Because the Bulova Accutron was the 1st electronic watch and it is not only a haptic experience -- yes, you can feel the humming of 360Hz -- but also a visible with its sweeping seconds-hand.
And yes, we like a tuningfork-watch in steel as well but to be honest: #nothingHumsLikeSolidGold. And this watch was made in 1965 when the technology and Bulova had its peak with quartz not yet on the horizon and being the most innovative timepiece you could wear on your wrist in the mid 1960s.
