Very interesting Jeff. I was having a good hunt through your Stopwatch section, and I had singled out the 332.401 'Century' model. The only difference is that the Heuer shield was below the center point, just like the one in the colour photo.
I'm off to hunt for the John Glenn story!
PS. Jeff - was the article ever published, if so have you got a link?
Cheers

: It appears to be the Reference 332.401, described as 1/5 second
: with split action; maybe not this exact model, but pretty close.
: Below is scan showing this model in 1963 Heuer catalog; yep, no
: need for "this year's" model for this mission . . .
: this old Heuer was up to the task!!
