Watch Description

i just received this accutron yesterday and as the battery inside was dated 7/92 i didn't give the watch much chance. However i cleaned it up some and replaced the battery and as they say "voila" it started. Albeit a little slowly. My first going accutron, that hummm is intriguing. If anyone know the model any information would be most appreciated.

Generally speaking it's a 1971 Bulova Accutron Calendar. but I've not been able to determine the model number variant.

thank you for the model name, i didn't even know that much. Checked the 5 pages in the database and not one just like this one. May be European? You may also notice in the photos i uploaded a missing date escutcheon (?) and a battery strap securing screw that has lost 1/2 its head.
