I bought a titanium citizen skyhawk, it was on sale, half price. Bargain, looks nice, lots og good functions, wizz wheel, timer, time zones etc etc. All the stuff a real pilot needs.

Used it for my IMC rating...waste of time!

doing timed turns or executing a hold whilst looking at a small wristwatch was way too much work. every time I turned my wrist to check the time I over or under-banked!

I have now invested the vast sum of £3 on a nice clip-on digital stopwatch that can sit on my clipboard and the digits can be read from about 3 miles away. (If only I had listened to my instructor and done that from the start!)

The watch does look nice though
