The Bulova “Astronaut” (and “Spaceview”) Watches with the historic cal. 214 electronic tuning fork movement is a classic that has a place in every watch collection AND in space as was the case during NASA’s heyday in the 60’s and early 70’s. This 14k one ...

I would love to have someone like this in my own garage!! Cheers! Abel

... Captain I might confess I forgot my rucksack with Gin and Tonic bottles at the base! Well now to watches: I feel a chrono is a must have in our Space mission. Any good chrono would do but if Nasa approved... And it happens this is my last catch! Lol! ...  

the big Pilot Heritage I own for about three years. The Tin Tin arrived three days ago! It was a lucky find completely NOS!! I couldn’t let it go! A cool watch indeed! I’m happy to know you like it!! Abrazos amigo! Abel

New Old Stock !

And I don’t know anyone that deserves it more than you 🥂

Appreciate so much your kind words! Abel

there is alot of NASA history in the family. Thanks Abel!

That’s so cool 😎

... there is a lot!! Congrats to you and your parents Jporos! Hagwe! Abel

. . . cool! I'll bet you had playground bragging rights way back when, j. "My dad's a fireman." "Oh, yeah? My dad's chief of police." "My mom works for NASA with the astronauts."

but I did get to go into work with them sometimes and play with cool stuff for back then, like the IBM 360 computer.

Have a great weekend all. G. ...  

Nevertheless, here’s the right “feel,” at least (that domed sapphire helps): the Citizen Campanola Perpetual Calendar AG6200-07P. A perpetual calendar that would allow an astronaut either to go back or forward in time. For example: to find the day of the ...  

Space around the watch and on the dial

Thank you for taking the time to join us this weekend and I hope that you are enjoying WristScan. The Campanola looks great in your photos and I think it’s a perfect choice for “The Mission” Have a great weekend !

Autavia GMT is a great choice for the WristScan Space Mission. Thanks for joining us this weekend.

The last time I visited The Kennedy Space Centre, I went on the “Then and Now” tour. This tour went to the original launch pad for John Glenn’s Freedom 7 flight on February 20th 1962. He carried a note on the flight which read, "I am a stranger. I come in...  

A magnificent representation of the Speedy then and now you have here for our virtual Space Mission! I feel is among the firsts in our comunity (our dear friend HSTE showed his not long ago if memory doesn’t fail) But I’m sure we will see many more here i... 

The 50th Anniversary Speedmasters need to be seen on your wrist as they truly come alive as the light catches the gold highlights. Have a great weekend onboard !

watches we need to see in the metal to fully appreciate its details. Regret they are not available here ... yet. They are expected to arrive in late September I was told. I feel it is a must have for Speedy lovers and collectors!! Keep enjoying my friend!... 

making it very comfortable.

But when you have it on your wrist it just looks perfect and you start to see how well all the details look.

The touch of gold is a fitting tribute for the 50th Anniversary and bang on current trend my friend ! ...  

... we have observed a trend in the last couple of years of returning to the so called "two tone" watches: steel with touches of gold. Something I like when it is done lightly and with taste. I must confess I made a reserve for this model when it was anno... 

But we are seeing so interesting alternatives and some great photos.

my favourite villain! ...

. . . the then-new cal 861 movement hadn't gone thru the requisite testing prior references had already passed. Best, Art

very cool, Art. By the way, I agree that your Speedmaster should have made it up.

Some would argue that this movement has been synonymous with our space program more than any other produced ...
