History The first ever Towson Watch Company timepiece, the Mission Chronograph was designed and built in 2000 for an astronaut on a NASA STS-99 mission, which mapped the earth’s surface from the south of Greenland to the northern edge of the Antarctic. The first line of Mission Chronographs built were tested and proven in space, serving as faithful companions to the astronauts on-board the Endeavor aircraft.
