Thought the Mars time watch thing was a cereal box toy level of gimmick. Lots of great watches in their history of course.Smitty woke up today and chose violence.
Based on what I read it sounded like ESA asked them for the functionality. It's certified and will be worn by personnel and astronauts in the ESA.Thought the Mars time watch thing was a cereal box toy level of gimmick. Lots of great watches in their history of course.
All complications are totally ******* ridiculous except for date and GMT!
There have been some great suggestions to your inquiry. I’d like to ask what complications are worth owning? I posted before that I’m essentially only interested in complications that I will actually use. So a chronograph is a pointless function I think. Moon phase too. I think date and power reserve if manual wind are good. Perpetual calendar is dumb because you probably have to service it before you get through the cycle. Why care about incremental improvements in the chronograph function of the Daytona movement if you never use it?
Unfacconable has made this point many times in a better way. So perhaps it’s rhetorical. Watches are ultimately personal.
So ALS has updated their website and listed every watch as "price upon request"...what a pain in the a**
Just use the Google spreadsheet
(and the ability to shift it on a whim).
Likely some of the military/SAR stuff like Sinn, Marathon and such. Neat that ESA ordered some but not sure exactly why. For folks in control room? Motivation for employees to have buy-in to missions? Interesting but maybe a far cry from issued for use in space?Based on what I read it sounded like ESA asked them for the functionality.

What other companies are making watches that are still being deployed in the field like this, that you can also buy as a consumer? Honest question

Rising interest rates? No problem, Powell with a Rolex Submariner.
Currency is fluctuating like crazy right now between USD, Pound and EUR... companies are doing pricing corrections to stay level between markets.
There are only two proper hedges against inflation. Patek and Rolex wristwatches and being an ambulance chasing attorney. Pick one or the other unless you are George Red and can accomplish both.Just a few weeks ago it was big news that they're on par... now we're almost at 4% more ...
