One of a kind with such a complete set of box and papers and a watch in such fine condition. Could not have ended up in better hands. Congrats William.
Hard/impossible to see how this might be true. You can feel that admiration, with a tiny twinge of envy, throughout the whole of OF. I have no doubt you will enjoy this and care for it. Well done
Beautiful, just beautiful! Agree with many others who are thankful for your sharing. My challenge would be keeping it in a safe. I do enjoy wearing my vintage pieces, but understand keeping it out of harm’s way. Cheers Spacefruit!
@Spacefruit What a find !!! @Cuttysark Superb signed NASA photo S65-30427... here's a scan showing detail as Ed White wore a pair of Omega Speedmaster 105.003 chronographs Jim McDivitt filming White from the open Gemini capsule also wore 2 Omega 105.003 so 4 Omega Speedmaster were exposed to open space .
Thats gonna be a definite example for all the Ed white in the world . Please William post more close up shots for us to use as reference.
Truly an awesome find. I inherited an Ed White from my dad (with receipts and papers, but no box). My watch is not quite as nice as yours, but it's nearly so. And it's my most treasured keepsake from him. Thanks for sharing.
What an acquisition, to find a watch, box and a full set of papers including promotional material, in almost perfect condition from 53 years ago is just amazing. Congratulations.
Very nice ! Happy to see a real collector grade set congrats ! Won’t say wear it in good health But DIBS !
The main issue with this watch is that it cannot be a daily wearer . If somehow you scratch the bezel, it will hurt more than a thousand cuts ! Can't wait for the next 3 ...
