What's the group-think on this? What watch do you wear/recommend?


I received a considerable bit of jocular harassment from some friends
for purchasing a rather large digital watch for flying. I have an
"aviation" style analog watch that just wasn't doing anything for me.

I couldn't be happier with the digital choice... Press a button to
switch between 12 & 24 hour time, press another button once for Zulu
time, a second time for a stop watch, a third time for a programmable
count down timer (it's my fuel timer) and in a dark cockpit, press
another button and the display lights up brightly for 4 seconds.

I consider it a tool, not a fashion statement.


Yeah, I saw it.. Great for building up the biceps too, just have to
alternate wrists on a long flight!!
