Thank you for posting your watch.  I believe this model is the yellow gold filled version of the Accutron 214 which might be model 414.   The interesting thing about this model it is the one that is regularly converted to a Spaceview.   Dealers and aftermarket people remove the dial leaving the minute track ring and you have a Spaceview. 1964 Bulova Accutron.

Closest match I can find is model '403'. If you get the caseback off, this model used case# 2453 (may be stamped inside).

Thanks for the sleuthing everyone! It sure looks like the 403 to me.  It's a shame I don't have the original band, but it's a fine looking watch.  Thanks again!
