 Huck, I owned several of these back in the 90's when I was heavy into vintage....this watch was Bulova's answer to the Hamilton Electrics, even with some crazy asymetrical cases.  unlike the Hamiltons 500 and 505 movements, these tuning fork movements were actually pretty accurate and rugged....they actually make a humming sound when they are running.

Not so sure on this price though....seems a little high, I sold mine about 4 or 5 years ago and probably got an average of $500 or $600 and they were all in mint condition....check the bay and see what people are paying for them.

I'm kind of sorry I sold all mine, should have kept at least one of them.
