Were JLC used on adventure expeditions?

I'm a big fan of vintage JLC watches and their technical abilities throughout their history.
I have a couple of their early bumper cal 481 movements which are amazing.

But was wondering if JLC watches were ever used on past expeditions like omega with the moon or Rolex with Everest and deep sea exploration,longines and air travel.

I know they built aircraft and car instruments,supplied armed forces during WW2 and have provided the US navy seals.

So JLC is a very capable company,but dont see many public achievements?
