路Something a little different today, a Soviet "Ed White". On 18 March 1965 Aleksei Leonev became the first man to walk in space, beating Ed White by about three months. He wore a "Soviet Omega", The Poljot or Strela, with the 3017 movement. The serial number of this watch places it at the very end of 1964 or very early 1965, possibly around the same batch that the actual space watch would have been chosen from.

路Thanks. The Vulcain Nautical is a lot like it's contemporary, the JLC Polaris... same exact case, even, if we're talking about the second iteration (my watch) from around 1962... but smarter. Here is a nice write-up of the heritage edition (which is quite faithful to the original), with an informative video.

well researched, good source material. Clement is a quality editor and publisher.

路路Adam @ 惟FBy the way, the ref. 7926 has gotten a lot of splash on Hodinkee lately. The current Advisor model is pretty ugly (they just got it so wrong), so most are looking back to the glory days...
