Regarding Stop watches..... I am about to fly the CPL test sometime soon and I don't have a stopwatch on my A4 kneeboard at all. What I have been doing is using the stopwatch function on the ADF when I need it (usually for the leg time and timed compass turns). I do however wear a digital watch on my wrist and use this for the ETA's which I do as times past the hour (e.g 47 which I am sure is easier than an anolgue presentation?).
I am not at a huge school, infact I think the I'm the only CPL student there at the moment so I haven't managed to get that much gen off of anyone so any advice would be gratefully recieved. The methods I explained seem to be working fine so far but I would be interested to hear whether or not this is not "the done thing" or perhaps it is even unusual and should be rectified before I try to show off any aviation prowess I might or might not have in front of an examiner?!
Any comments appreciated,

Cheers.
