Before the Moonwatch Only book came out, I had Schirra's personal CK2998 listed as a -5, but it was a 2998-4
Here are the pre-Gemini era watches worn on American spaceflight missions.
Note the Speedmaster has always been hyped, but wristwatch-wise the July 1975 to April 1981 period is the most exciting (Russian flights only)
