November 1973... Two automatic chronographs in space ! 50 years ago, on November 16, 1973, the third and final manned Skylab space station mission  SL-4 was launched. Besides their NASA-issued Omega Speedmaster, each of the Skylab-4 astronauts took an extra wristwatch up to NASA’s space station, with William Pogue’s yellow dial Seiko Automatic 6139-6005 as the best-known example. However, SL-4 commander US Marine Corps LtCol Gerald Carr was seen wearing a blue dial reverse panda Movado Datachron HS360 automatic chronograph during training in 1972/1973. In this photograph, Carr during suit-up on launchday to NASA's Skylab space station, wearing the Movado underneath the space suit! In 2019 MoonwatchUniverse triggered the research into this amazing automatic chronograph, resulting in Hodinkee's article entitled "Snuck Into Space!" (Photo: NASA/MoonwatchUniverse)

50 years ago... Two automatic chronographs return from space ! February 8, 1974 as the third and final manned Skylab space station mission  SL-4 safely returned to Earth with a splash-down in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California. Each of the Skylab-4 astronauts used an extra personal wristwatch during NASA Skylab training; Gerald Carr: Movado Datachron HS-360 automatic chronograph William Pogue: Seiko 6139-6005 automatic chronograph Edward Gibson: Omega Speedmaster Mark II chronograph We know for sure both Gerald Carr and William Pogue wore their automatic chronograph onboard the Skylab space station (Orbital Work Shop OWS) between November 1973 and February 1974. Carr's Movado chronodiver had a black & white bakelite bezel. Note SL-4 commander US Marine Corps LtCol Gerald Carr’s Movado Datachron had a reverse panda blue dial which over the years turned “chocolate” in the 2022 photograph! In 2019 MoonwatchUniverse co-authored the research into this amazing chronograph resulting in a  HODINKEE magazine article “Snuck Into Space!”. (Photos: NASA/HODINKEE)

I’m going to tell you all my Movado watch story.

Why?  No real reason, I just told it to somebody on the phone and thought I’d share it here as well.  It’s nothing of any importance, but it’s stuck with me ever since it happened.

We have to go back in time about 15 years to when I visited a casino and signed up for their membership rewards program.  This came with a little coupon booklet, which included a coupon for Movado.

Movado is a brand of watchmaker, and if they’re not quite the ritziest of ritzy watches, they’re still definitely in the “fancy” category.  I was already aware of the stature of the brand through a story my father had told me from when he was young.  So, I figured I’d head over and take a look at their stock.

I wasn’t actively planning to buy a watch, especially not one this expensive since the coupon had a $500 minimum, but if they had one that really struck my fancy and if the coupon made it affordable, well....

So I get there, I’m browsing, and I show the coupon to the clerk.  The clerk very helpfully points out the tine fine print: Not Applicable For Watches.

....it’s a watch store.  What else am I going to buy there if not a watch?  Sure, they sell jewelry and accessories, but who buys watch accessories if they don’t have the watch?  And how many of them would a person need to buy to get up the coupon value?  What was I going to do, buy 10 necklaces at once?

I even asked the clerk what we could get, and all he could do was suggest buying a whole bunch of jewelry.

I still have that coupon -- still unused -- and even with the way costs have risen I would still need to buy multiple pieces of jewelry in order to use it.
