Currently a Breitling Aerospace. However, it takes on water and quits everytime I get in a pool. Had it "repaired" numerous times with the same result. Probably because I pushed the timer when I was doing a deep dive. Expressly told NOT TO DO in the Manual. Which pilot reads manuals? Anyways, I now get the batteries replaced in a small shop in Porntip Plaza, Bangkok. Saves $ 250 each time the watch needs servicing. The first time the shop owner printed on the inside of the cover something in Thai. He smiled and said, " One year guarentee." I think my warrenty may be void. Looks like I must go visit Izzy each year for a proper time hack.

Sold my real GMT Master when I realized it couldn't be worn in the places I like to frequent.

Used to wear my Lolex GMT to maybe impress the local female co-pilots. Band kepy breaking.

Timex and aircraft clocks for billing.
