This watch has an intriguing personal story that I’d like to share.
In the early 2000s, I saw this discussion on Chuck Maddox blog regarding this watch.


At the time, it was speculated that this could be one of the possible Waltham the watch Dave Scott (as it seems he's reported in alttere) wore during his EVA. As Chuck reported on his blog, it was believed to be a Waltham, although it was later discovered, many years after, that it was actually a Bulova.

[Scott, from a 1996 letter - "I do not recall ever having looked at my watch after egress. In the cabin after EVA-2, I noticed that the crystal of my Omega had popped off sometime during the EVA. Therefore, on EVA-3, I used my backup Waltham watch (which was) of a similar type. It worked just fine during the even higher temperatures of EVA-3.]".

When I saw the photo of this Waltham on Chuck’s website, I began a search for it. After years of hunting, I finally found it.

Here it is, and I think it has good place in a collection, for me it's time to let him go.
