I got a $30 timex at Target that has features 1 - 3. It also has a
stopwatch which is useful for timing a trip, but isn't be so great for
timing holds in IFR. It has a big digital display behind the analog
hands, so it's easy to read from a distance. It has a molded-on band,
which I'm not crazy about, and I think the watch is a bit ugly, but
it's definitely useful.



1) Analog hands and second hand for timing things
2) Digital clock set to Zulu time so I don't have to bother my small brain
with those pesky conversions
3) Backlight so I can see it when I'm flying at night
4) Vibrating alarm so I remember to do routine things like switch tanks.
5) Nifty E6B ring around the outside that I really can't see, but really
impresses the chicks at the bar

What say you?
