The Omega Seamaster Chronostop, reference 145.008 is a 41 mm steel single-pusher chronograph built 1966-1970 on the manual-wind caliber 865, rated to 120 metres. The "Regatta" execution carries a crown-set internal rotating bezel with a 15-minute countdown scale in blue and red, designed for timing a yacht-race start sequence. (OTTUHR) A r/Watches identification thread names it as the watch chef and television host Alton Brown wears on his own YouTube series, with a top comment recounting the watch's history: it belonged to Brown's father, was stolen in the 1980s, and was later tracked down on eBay and restored, a story Brown has also told on Hodinkee's Talking Watches. A second commenter independently cites the specific reference. (r/Watches)
