Heuer Stopwatch That Timed Eagle's Descent to Lunar Surface

With all the fuss about the lunar landing and all the Speedmasters, let's not forget the Heuer stopwatch that was used to time the Eagle's descent to the lunar surface.

Of course it had to be a Heuer!!

Here is an excellent posting on the role of this stopwatch in the landing.
