Slightly OT but has anyone ever used a Suunto watch while flying?

I'm thinking about getting one for my climbing /skiing etc. and it
dawned on me that the 3' altimeter (supposedly accurate to 29000')
might be a handy back-up.

Don't have one but a nonflying friend showed me his. Seemed pretty
good. If you get one, come back with a PIREP. I'd be really curious to
know how the accuracy is while in a flying cockpit. Is there any method for
correcting for baro pressure?
