Before that I had an Avocet altimeter watch; I don't really recall but
I think it had a similar setting.

If find it most useful for paragliding; I don't use it in the plane.

of these watches are just expensive ways to impress non-pilots (and
they usually don't care) and they're so big and thick that they're
forever in the way or catching on something.

I thought the same thing the first time I saw a watch with an E6-B in
the bezel. Although it may be a good pickup tool for airport bunnies
I can't imagine how bad things would have to be to need to use it do
perform actual flight calculations.
