Just added this Fortis Cosmonaut Chronograph - flown on the ISS for 6 months aboard the ISS Expedition 35/36 to the Moonpans website.

As noted on Moonpans website via a link to my blog, Space Artifacts Archive, I own a space flown Fortis Consmonaut chronograph. I must say that I really love it. Mine came from Sergei Zalyotin and flew in 2002. Zalyotin flew the first of the TMA Class of Soyuz to the ISS and flew the last of the TM Soyuz class back to Earth with the watch.
This is a fine and durable watch. I think the dial is well designed as a chronograph with day/date and a Super-Luminova coating on the hands that allows it to be easily read in any light conditions. The Valjoux 7750 movement has a strong history in the watch industry.
