Seiko Pink Watches

Just a few days ago, that the Seiko A829-A6019 was one of the ‘other’ watches that went into space. Besides the official Omega Speedmaster Pro and a bunch of other ‘unofficial’ watches that made it there, it seems that Seiko was at least selected by astronauts.Former astronaut Wubbo Ockels mailed me the other day, that the Seiko A829-A6019 (and he also wrote there is a ‘A0′ behind this reference number) was selected by a couple of astronauts and they arranged a nice procurement deal for this specific type of watch. Furthermore, Wubbo Ockels emailed me the serial number of his specific Seiko A829-A6019 (which he still wears): 334602.Perhaps a Seiko collector or owners of the Seiko A829-A6019 ‘Astronaut’ can look up their serial numbers and see how far they are ‘away’ from the one that made it into orbit.Make sure to visit the over at WatchUseek.
