 Yes, Chris... I saw it in this link:http://www.x-plane.org/home/furo/watches/watches_in_space.html

But the way I see it, the winding would not be optimum as on earth, as it comes only from direct impluse...
But it's thrue: A watch rotor can be winded in space.
The question is: Wouldn't a manual winding movement be better and safer for a cosmonaut who's not running around all day? Or an automatic with manual winding feature...?
Oscar: I know that the Lemania is a wanted movement but the nylon parts don't attract me... Tissot burned themselfs on that technology...
