SEC. 83 ISSUE NR 1 YEAR 2017 INVICTA BEYOND THE EDGE OF SPACE BEYOND THE EDGE OF SPACE On December 8th, 2012 Invicta teamed with physicist, Benjamin Longmier- PhD in Plasma Physics from the University of Wisconsin and Founder of Project Aether for the most significant time endurance mission to date; The Invicta Edge of Space Watch Project. Invicta launched 36 timepieces to the edge of space and documented every step of the remarkable journey via video. The watches were secured on specially designed, structured payloads made of lightweight carbon fiber. The entire mission was filmed using highly specialized cameras and equipment that was able to withstand the unique nature of the project given weather, speed of travel and the atmospheric nature of the process. Working closely with Benjamin Longmier, we were able to determine exactly what these watches were exposed to during their deployment to reach these exceptional heights and their journey returning to earth. This collaboration was the 1st of its kind. No other watch company has put their timepieces to the test in such a significant and exciting way. New frontiers of accomplishment and ability, fortitude arrived. An expedition that only Invicta time could successfully handle, and did.
