This model, the Reference 105.003 from 1964, entered the history books and is now known as the “Ed White”

On March 1st 1965, this watch became the official Flight Qualified watch for all Manned Space Missions and therefore NASA ordered watches directly from Omega to give to astronauts during training for their missions. Previously, astronauts had supplied their own watches.

Who was Ed White?
Ed White was an early member of the NASA Astronaut program in the 1960s. He is remembered for being the first American to “walk” in space. This means he undertook activities outside the small spacecraft in which he was orbiting the Earth.
