Astronauts James McDivitt and Ed White circled the Earth 66 times in four days, making it the first US flight to approach the five-day flight of the Soviet Vostok 5. The highlight of the mission was the first space walk by an American, during which White floated free outside the spacecraft, whilst tethered to it, for approximately 20 minutes. Both of these accomplishments helped the United States overcome the Soviet Union's early lead in the space race.On this mission, White wore an Omega Speedmaster ref 105.003 strapped to the outside of the left-side sleeve of his G4C space suit. In order to accommodate the space suit, the watch was attached via a long nylon strap secured with velcro. When worn on the wrist, the strap could be wound around several times to shorten its length. This was the first time an Omega Speedmaster had been exposed to the vacuum of space. This model was later given the nickname the 'Ed White' in recognition of his historic space walk (officially described as an EVA or extra vehicular activity) on June 3.The 105.003 was produced for just a short period of time (1963-1969) with the majority made in 1965, before the 145.012 model was introduced and chosen by NASA to accompany the Apollo 11 mission to put the first man on the moon. The 105.003 and prior models are informally known as 'Pre Moon' Speedmasters, since their manufacture predates the moon landings.The Speedmaster remains one of several watches qualified by NASA for spaceflight and is still the only one so qualified for EVA. Crystal - Complete. Surface scratches all over, some quite deep. Possibly the original crystal.Dial - Appears to be generally in good order. Some minor deterioration to the luminosity on the batons and hands.Movement - Winds satisfactorily. Movement operational but has not been tested for timekeeping or endurance. Crown engages and disengages as it should, and the hands move freely in both directions. Start/stop button works satisfactorily. Reset button operational but rather stiff. Chronograph seconds and minute hands flyback to zero, but the hour hand does not return.Case & Bracelet - Surface scratches all over. Verso unscrews and screws satisfactorily. Bezel worn and dirty, scratched and pitted with some minor chips and one more obvious chip at 2 o'clock. Bracelet rather stretched and missing the springs from the elasticated section by the clasp. Clasp operational.
Lot 195
Unsigned - A base metal 'trench' style 'wristlet' hunter wristwatch, circa 1914, the unsigned white dial, 28mm diameter, with (originally) luminous Arabic numerals, skeleton hands, subsidiary seconds register at 6 o'clock and chemin de fer chapter ring, jewelled crown wind mechanical movement decorated with 'The Côtes de Gèneve', stamped SWISS MADE 071', case, 34mm diameter, front cover hinged at 12 o'clock with push button release at 6 o'clock, interior stamped BREVET 71363, verso screw down, plain and polished, interior stamped BREVET 71363, fixed wire lugs to a brown stitched leather two piece cuff strap with gilt pin buckle At the beginning of World War I, officers still wore pocket watches on chains. However, it soon became apparent that they were too cumbersome for use in battle. Some officers started strapping a pocket watch to their wrist so that they could, at a glance, see the time without having to fumble in their pockets to extract their watch; it was clear that a watch which could be specifically worn on the wrist was what was required.Wristwatches (or wristlets as they were first called) with traditional pocket watch hunter cases, such as this example, were often marked ‘Brevet 71363’. This refers to a Swiss patent granted to Charles Zurbrüegg on 23 June 1915 for a "Boîte-savonnette pour montres-bracelet" or a hunter case for wristwatches.The hinged front cover was retained in order to protect the brittle crystal from the rigours of the Great War, in the same way as hunting pocket watches protected the crystal from damage should the watch slip out of the owner's pocket during hunting on horseback. However, the cover defeated the whole point of a wristwatch, which was created to allow the time to be read quickly and easily by simply glancing at the wrist. Both hands were needed to open and close the cover, which proved to be just as inconvenient as the pocket watch which it was designed to replace. Hunter wristwatches are often seen with their cover missing. In some cases this was because the hinge had worn out, but it is said that many hunter covers were simply wrenched off by their frustrated owners. Once 'unbreakable' crystals became available in 1915 the extra protection offered by a hunter cover was unnecessary. As a result, few were made, and complete examples in good condition are now seen as collectors' items. Crystal: Complete. Some light surface scratches as to be expectedDial: Generally in good condition. A little dusty. Some loss of lume to the minute handMovement: In working order, though not tested for timekeeping or endurance. Crown engages and disengages satisfactorily and the hands move freely, though a little stiffly, in both directionsCase: Some light surface scratches as to be expected. Cover opens and closes well, and the push button catch operates satisfactorily. Case back screws and unscrews satisfactorily.
