[LM_NET] Earhart's watch

[Mary Beth Roche <MRoche@EDAFF.COM>]

Hello all wonderful librarians with diverse knowledge.

 

I personally have been fascinated with Amelia Earhart witch started when
I first learned about her probably in my fourth grade history class.  I
went to see "Amelia" this weekend and was not disappointed at all.  The
movie was done well.  For some reason, throughout the movie, my eyes
kept on focusing on her watch (I suppose I now have another
fascination).  I have done a lot of research, and still cannot come up
with the brand or type of watch she wore, so I am asking my panel of
experts.  I have however found the following sites that talk about her
watch going up in space with astronaut Shannon Walker next year.  The
one site has some close ups of the watch, so I was hoping that my help.
