I have an older Accutron (10KT gold filled case # 411821) with attached mesh bracelet. N218 movement (70's?)What is approximate age and it is worth having it cleaned, etc.?

No photo on my screen. Is the watch running? Accutron's have been produced over a long time span, so without the photos or ID info on the movement, can't really answer your questions.

if it's a 214, Yes.

The 214 is easily identifiable by it's 'backset' Crown and battery hatch.

  Your 218 is worth in the $125 range and can be serviced for about $100 but then you will have a unique and very serviceable watch unlike the others in the room.
