Cool video of a watch being repaired in space. Nice cameo by a leatherman wave as well...

Yeah, it's so weird watching gravity not at work. :D And I loved that they used the MT for what it's made for... Improvising. :D

I wonder if the Wave is government issue for shuttle flights, or if it was just brought on board by the individual astronaut?

Even if it wasn't NASA issue,I'm sure it would have been approved by NASA.Every ounce has to be accounted for and and figured into fuel calculations.
