    Default A little (time)piece of history

    The Adler Planetarium in Chicago had Jim Lovell's Omega Speedmaster on display. He wore this on Gemini 12 in 1966

    Sorry for the poor pics, point-n-shoot fail...

    Various kit, there's a watch hiding in there somewhere:

    That's a nice treat. Omega's one of my favorite daily wear watches. Great history, well made and good value for the money. I have the Seamaster Ti with blue dial.
