Unveiled in 1960 the 521 was the first and arguably the most desirable offset asymmetrical Accutron design. Known as one of the popular “TV watches” from the brand at the time it is no surprise that the King whose career was launched on the iconic television series The Ed Sullivan Show took a liking. A watch fit for a king the Accutron 521 was a unique standout and unlike any other watch at the time given its unique case shape. The original model featured a 14-karat gold-filled case and was unique in that it was the only model in the series that contained a mineral glass crystal and a snap-on case back.
