Jay,

Nice watch but the lack of analog feature is a deal-killer for me.
What am I going to do if ATC tell me "Traffic at 2 o'clock" ;-)

I had a Timex Epedition but it died within a year or two (the same
with my very expensive Titanium dive watch and few other fancy
watches) The $5 Walmart analog watch with big numbers and very
visible second hand has served me well for the last several years. I
have a timer for my approaches and hold pattern etc. but I much prefer
glancing at the analog watch while doing the hold.

Of course this cheap watch does not have Zulu time but I don't find
doing a simple addition while flying a big challenge yet. I may
change my mind in a few years ;-)
