The STS-99 Chronometer was the first commercially-available Towson Watch and the root of our Mission Collection. It is a precise reproduction of the historic timepiece that our co-founder, Hartwig Balke, sent into outer space in 2000. Worn on the wrist of a NASA astronaut aboard the Endeavour spacecraft on a STS-99 mission. This first edition chronometer is COSC-certified with a custom gold-plated rotor hand engraved by Jochen Benzinger. The 40mm stainless-steel case features satin finishes, sapphire-crystal and smooth lines for durability. A high-contrast dial is designed for legibility and precision timekeeping.

A standard triple- chronograph display of engine-turned sub-dials and a stamped textured center, featuring painted roman numerals and indices. Marked with the TWC initial logo. The triple-chronograph includes a minute counter at 12 o’clock, sweep-second at 9 o’clock and hour-counter at 6 o’clock. Surrounded by a tachymeter. The minute, hour and chronograph hands operate from the center with a push-pull crown and start/stop pushers aside it. The high-polish case is water resistant to 50 meters, shock absorbent, and capable of being worn in space. An exhibition case-back reveals the Swiss Caliber 7750 movement that is decorated, assembled, and calibrated in-house.
