Like a lot of people, my educational deep dives into watches started around spaceflight and the Omega Speedmaster. In the first few articles I read in the watch space, it became clear to me that apparently, the Speedmaster was a watch I needed to know to be a “real” watch guy. So I read, studied, and learned the differences between references and which watches were used on which missions – all things I’ve definitely forgotten by now – but along the way, I kept getting sidetracked by these branching paths other watches used by NASA Astronauts. So when Bulova and Accutron jointly teased a space-themed set of releases, it was obvious what was coming.
