Seiko pays colorful tribute to Skylab-flown 'Pogue' chronograph with new watch [i]A new wristwatch pays tribute to the first automatic chronograph that was worn in space. Seiko has revealed its new Prospex Speedtimer SSC947 with a colorway based on the golden yellow, red and blue watch that NASA astronaut Bill Pogue launched to the Skylab orbital workshop in 1973. Unlike the Seiko 6139, which was later nicknamed the "Pogue" after the astronaut, the new watch has a solar-powered movement with a six-month power reserve.[/i]
