    I suspect there are one or two NASA fans here, and you may have seen this already, but on Roku (yes, Roku) there is a multi episode series called The Apollo Chronicles. It is very straightforward with lots of images and information. I was particularly interested in the discussion of whether Armstrong or Aldrin would first step on the moon. Take a look. Below is a photo of Bill Anders, Apollo 8, as he poses for a wrist shot in downtown Chicago during a ticker tape parade. I believe his complexion is less striped in person. Maybe someone can clean up that watch image. Definitely an asymmetric Speedmaster on a Champion (type) band.
