Accutron 214 Military & Aviation Panel Clocks
2/16/08 - The above image was captured from the PBS Nova series, "AstroSpies". The documentary tells the recently disclosed story of top secret, US and Russian, programs to launch manned spy capsules into orbit during the 60's. Both programs were terminated because of huge costs, and minimal success. In one scene, the panel clock above was displayed for about 3 seconds. That's time enough to identify the distinctive, continuous sweep motion, which in 1963, could only have been an Accutron 214 movement. The missing hour hand, and backward 60 second dial suggests that it was used for the countdown to launch. The red second hand casts very dark shadow.
