Introduced in 2007, the limited edition Fireman Skylab from Ball Watch pays tribute to NASA’s great successes in space.
The Fireman Skylab honours the contributions made by Owen Garriott and his celebrated Skylab II. The distinguishing feature of this watch is its engraved back, decorated with a unique design.
This stainless steel watch houses the automatic ETA 7750 chronograph movement with day and date functions.
The black dial boasts vertically arranged chronograph counters (12-hour at 6H and 30-minute at 9H), day-date window at 3 o’clock, and a seconds indicator representing Skylab II’s wing at 9 o’clock. This chronograph also features an external tachymeter bezel.
