John,

Did you ever actually use your watch for some aeronautical purpose while
flying?

Jon


(Thread Jumping...sorry...)

I have a Citizen "Wingman" that I've owned since 1990 and I can actually
claim to do something aeronautical with it:

If I push the upper right and lower left buttons at the same time, the
digital display changes from local time to UTC. I can then set the watch to
24HR time and voila!, I can tell FSS what time I was wheels up in UTC
without having to do the converson from MST to UTC in my head!

Quite handy actually...
