Premium on "John Glenn Stopwatch"
In Response To: Very Interesting ()


I am hoping that there will be a premium, not that I am selling this on eanytime soon.

This model stopwatch had caught my eye some years ago, as being similar to the dashboard autavias -- same movement, mechanism, functions, etc. The fact that it had long history of production, with a reliable rugged movement, probably weighed in favor of NASA's selection of this stopwatch for John Glenn's flight.
