Released on June 29 for $1,030, The Space Watch comes in two editions, Jet Silver and Space Black, limited to 150 pieces each.

From Danne:

It was 1974 when the firm of Danne & Blackburn, with partner Bruce Blackburn, was selected to redesign the U.S. space agency. I began serving as external design director for NASA, a role that lasted for another ten productive years. During that time, the iconic NASA Graphics Standards Manual was fully completed and honored with a U.S. "Presidential Award for Design Excellence" in 1985. 

Then in 2020, working with a remarkable NASA design committee, I helped update the agency's design guidelines to give our logotype more prominence in the future.

This watch design is inspired by space itself — its beauty, its silence, its rotating planets. The project caps an extraordinary involvement with the NASA family, one like no other and very close to my heart.
