The other moon watch…During the Apollo 15 mission NASA described it as an “unauthorized timepiece,” but for five hours on Aug. 2, 1971, David Scott (7th astronaut to walk on the moon) wore the Bulova wristwatch outside on the surface of the moon. Forty-four years later, Scott auctioned the Bulova watch for a record $1.625 million.
Bulova made space history with the moon pilot chronograph, customized for lunar conditions by Bulova engineers.
