Indeed!! here-- let me blow your mind--- forget the wristwatches the astronauts/cosmonauts wore in space. ALL THE ELECTRONIC CLOCKS IN THE INSTRUMENTATION AND COMPUTERS ON THE ROCKETS AND CAPSULES WAS...... drum roll...... made by BULOVA BABY!!!

Not alot of people know this unless they are in engineering.

cheers

Yesโ€ฆ but didnโ€™t they fail on the Apollo 17 mission and they had to use the Omega Speetimer to get back to earth?? Iโ€™m genuinely curious.

Watch failures happened since before the apollo program. with mercury and gemini.. with spacewalks etc. Apollo 17 was a success I think you meant Apollo 13
