505 Alpha Watch - Black

With only 600 pieces available of this limited edition Alpha stainless steel case design, this Legacy collection timepiece from Accutron harkens back to the original “505” featuring the iconic Alpha case design and released in the 1960s. 

In the 60’s Accutron unveiled its iconic asymmetrical Alpha case shape with the 505 timepiece. Accutron was popular at that time amongst physicians and nurses not only because of this significance, but also due to its unparalleled accuracy. The 505 became a notable watch because of the cross hairs, which divide the dial into quarters to measure time in 15-second increments. This design was the foundation for the full markings to check blood pressure and pulse throughout the medical industry. Known to be the original surgeon’s watch and for its use by nurses, the Accutron 505 became an instrumental tool throughout hospitals across the country.
