Forgot to post this here! Meet my new old DnD Character; Bienne, aka Balta. I painted this a couple months ago as part of an overall workflow and process overhaul.

1953-2023 ... 70 years Glycine Airman pilot watches
The 36 mm waterproof stainless steel Glycine Airman automatic was designed in 1953 to be the perfect pilot’s watch. A matte black 24 hours dial contrasts with the prominent arrow shaped hour hand and distinctive pencil minute hand. The Glycine Airman had an adjustable 24 hours bezel with lockdown thumbscrew, a domed acrylic plexiglass with date magnifier and a precise seconds hacking mechanism, an important feature for time synchronization used by military personnel.
It became the first automatic wrist watch to be used & exposed to outer space, by NASA astronaut Charles Pete Conrad respectively on Gemini V (August 1965) and Gemini XI (September 1966) spaceflight missions. During Gemini XI, Richard Gordon conducted 2 hours 41 minutes spacewalk time and due to the open cockpit design of the Gemini capsule, Conrad’s Glycine Airman automatic was all that time directly exposed to the vacuum of outer space!
A pilot watch favorite with civil airline pilots & military air crew of all forces alike. Army, Coast Guard, Navy, USAF, USMC & US Space Force.

Gerade auf der Rückfahrt von der Demontage einer Intertype, so das diese durch ein Fenster passt und dann zum @officinahelvetica gezügelt werden kann. Dort wird sie dann gereinigt, eine alte Schweissnaht verstärkt und wieder zusammengesetzt. #intertype #setzmaschine #reparatur #repair #demontage #zügeln #umzug #typesetting #bleisatz #typorama #biel #bienne #bischofszell #thurgau #schweiz #switzerland (hier: Biel/Bienne) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnPGyNPsU4D/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
