Vintage 1970s Bulova Accutron Deep Sea Transatlantic Sailing Print Advertisement
Approximately 8 x 11 inches.
This vintage Bulova Accutron Deep Sea advertisement from the early 1970s features Marine Consultant Tom Follett recounting his record-setting single-handed transatlantic sailing crossing aboard the 40-foot ketch 'Cheers,' relying on his Accutron's tuning fork movement for navigation across 3,000 miles of open ocean. The original print ad presents a dramatic photograph of the vessel alongside Follett's first-person account, culminating in the iconic tagline 'The watch that's become a scientific instrument.' A compelling collectible ad capturing the era's intersection of precision horology and adventure seamanship, the Accutron Deep Sea 'A' water-resistant to 666 feet represents Bulova at its most boldly functional.
