The Kentucky Derby broadcast just had a piece on Waltham stopwatch and it importance to horse racing in the US.

Just rewatched the piece it was called The American Watch Company at the time. I knew it went through a few names.

I saw that too. I thought that was a commercial at first but now I think it was a very cool reference. Congratulations Mage & Javier Castellano.
