first photo is a screengrab from an NBC story about how Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore are spending Thanksgiving stranded on the ISS. second photo is from the Watches Used in Space Database, which says they both have X-33 gen 1s, so assuming that's what she's wearing. if it is, cool looking watch I'm not too familiar with and they seem to be doing well despite being stuck in space until February

Definitely a remarkably long extended stay but they appear to be making the most of it by aiding in experiments on the ISS. I’m very glad to see that NASA did prioritize crew safety over expedience regardless of the apparent level of risk. That’s how it always should be.

I got stuck in Wyndham (remote Western Australia once) ….. think there is more people on the space station..

Was wearing my Speedmaster … actually nearly lost it on a vessel as the strap gave away

Wyndham? You'd probably be safer on the space station too.

Omega Speedmaster X-33 has been the standard NASA toolwatch since 1998...
