Apollo 1, 1967, Gus Grissom's 24 Hour, Le Coultre 24 Hour Dress Wristwatch. This stainless steel, military wristwatch has a lifetime main spring and is waterproof, anti-magnetic and shockproof. The watch has a brown alligator Omega watch band. This watch was Grissom's dress watch which he wore for special occasions. The watch has a plain black 24 hour face divided into one hour increments and a sweep second hand. Since NASA confiscated the watch Grissom was wearing on the day of the fire, this watch is the next best thing for collectors. A rare watch in its own right.
Estimated Value $750 - 1,000.
