Prospex Speedtimer SSC947P1 Pogue

The SSC947P1 model joins the Prospex Speedtimer collection. It is a solar chronograph powered by the V192 caliber. The case shape is inspired by the original 1964 model, with a new diameter of 41.40 mm. This model is affectionately nicknamed "Pogue", in reference to astronaut William Pogue. On November 16, 1973, he wore his Seiko watch during a training mission. The watch was not certified for space flight by NASA, but he decided to use his personal watch anyway. "I found it very useful for measuring fuel consumption," he recounts. During the official mission, Pogue wore his Seiko on his left arm. This mission, Skylab 4, was the longest ever, lasting 84 days and making 1,214 orbits around the Earth.
