Astronaut watches

I was talking to a former colleague and semi-WIS recently about when we worked together at an organization that had partnered with NASA. Of course Canada has a few astronauts and when we worked there we had the opportunity to work with Col. Chris Hadfield and Dr. Dave Williams.

Turns out Hadfield wears a Breitling Navitimer and Williams wore a G-Shock. Chris said he liked the Breitling since it's a good pilot watch (fair enough, given that Chris flew CF-18s for the RCAF) and Dave said he just wants something tough, reliable and accurate.

Different perspectives but interesting.
