Depends on what type of case and what type of dial. A Bulova Accutron was the most accurate watch available in it time (1960-1975). It was the gift of state when Lyndon Johnson was President. Some cases are stainless steel, some are 14K solid gold; some are 18K solid gold. I've even heard of ones made of solid white gold as well as ones made from platinum. Other less expensive ones are 14K gold filled (just gold plated), but use the same internal movements, dials, watch hands and other parts.

There are several different variations to the type of watch lugs and case styles. The Accutron Pulsation model was a doctor's watch. It was used in the Model 214 and 218 models. The only real difference that and any other Accutron was the material the watch was made from and the type of dial. There are many people who who endeavor to pass off an Accutron Pulsation model (doctor's watch) with or without realizing it is a counterfeit model.

Best bet is to have a qualified jeweler appraise it for authenticity if its a "Pulsation" model. Gold scratches easily so I would say any watch that is real gold shouldn't be worn playing sports and shouldn't be worn while working on one's car or truck.

I've seen a couple of web pages devoted to identifying a genuine "Pulsation" model from a counterfeit. However, I don't have a quick reference to them at this time; just "Google it"
