I know that there are some excellent watches out there specifically designed for flying etc, but I got sick and tired of replacing the glass cover (after scratching it on a pref-flight inspection/ playing footy with the lads on days off), then getting it pressure tested etc for water proofing. Stumbled across a G-Shock with dual time. US$90. That thing will take a big clout, is water proof, has all of the functions you need, most importantly dual time so you can have UTC and local up at the same time.
Only bad thing is it doesn't look anywhere as good as a Breitling.
