With Artemis II making humanities first manned flight around the moon since 1972 we thought it would be a great time to talk about the watches the crew will be wearing along with watches that have flown in space during the dawn of space travel.
We go over the NASA tests of Rolex, Omega, Longines, and Hamilton to see which watch would go to the Moon and how Omega won the fight.
A much less talked about fight from Bulova a to replace Omega a few years earlier leads to some interesting facts about American built Speedmasters.
Enjoy the conversation as we talk nerdy about watches in space!
