Omega watches are fantastic and nobody is disputing that fact.
This topic has obviously hit some raw nerves, so also being a Heuer enthusiast I thought I'd just throw another cat amonst the pigeons.

Thanks to On the Dash the Heuer forum.

TAG-Heuer Stakes Its Claim -- The First Swiss Watch in Space!! On October 26, 2006, TAG-Heuer made the big announcement -- that Heuer was the first Swiss timepiece in space, having been worn by John Glenn on his February 1962 mission. This news was the lead story on TAG-Heuer's website and was also the subject of a global Press Release issued by TAG-Heuer. It's very exciting that OnTheDash was part of this discovery, and we are proud to have presneted TAG-Heuer with this proud chapter of its history. (10/26/06)
