What watch were the astronauts wearing outside their spacesuits today? Can anyone tell?

Cool, Thanks for sharing. Time is no where in space but somehow it’s everywhere.

I do disagree with the last part of it:
“The astronauts will then board the ISS. When they return, the watch will likely be returned to NASA.”

He has worn that particular watch during other trips to ISS and is his own personal watch.

The significance is that Omega garners the limelight and should be crafting a continuation ad campaign by gifting a special 1 of 1 for Elon Musk with moondust on the dial.

I agree and man it would be one hell of a well deserved gift to give him. That would be Out if this World. Literally.
