Pretty sweet. I've always liked the Assymetrical cases but I went for the Hamilton Electrics. Got a Pacer,  Polaris, Savitar, Everest, Victor II and the Titan. Still trying for the Vega and the Altair. I'd love to show them off, but the Hammies are in the lock up at the bank and this is Bulova country.

Accutron 214 - I thought we'd decided to NOT use the Accutron model numbers when we knew them? If that's changed, this should be entered as Accutron 203.

I'm good with either Accturon 214 model #203 or what ever the proposed convention is- would it be Accutron #203.  Either way is fine w/ me.  Nice watch.

I think if these have an ad showing a model #, that's what should be used. Otherwise we go with Mark's comment and use the series and model #. I'm good either way.

Accutronredux, what is the movement date in your "203"? I could not tell from the picture. Thanks!

Thanks for sharing your information. I own a "203" with a movement date of M1 and case date M0. I knew the movement and case dates could be off a year, but wasn't sure these early 1960 models might have 1961 movements. I was told my watch was original, and it appears to be, but I wanted to compare the date codes with another "203". As always, the help provided is greatly appreciated.
