I really like the Heuer - Abercrombie and Fitch connection. However much TAG-Heuer has changed from being just Heuer, A&F has REALLY changed since the 60s and 70s, when it was an "wilderness" store rather than a huge trendy fashion empire. Heuer made quite a few cool things for A&F, and I think this one was one of them.
I am not a big stopwatch expert, but this looks like the Glenn "first in space" ref 2915A stopwatch. I'm sure someone out there can confirm (or correct) this. Anyway it looks very much like the same model, and I like the juxtaposition between the historical aspect and the current (and very different) perception of Abercrombie and Fitch.
