The watches above are the closest references in the bezelga catalogue, not the pieces that were on the wrist — those are named in each entry. Nothing here implies that Felix Baumgartner endorsed anything, and no photographs of anyone are reproduced: every page on bezelga uses our own drawings of the watches.
