When at work in your modern Scroggs' Wonder-Jet, if you need to know the time, just look at the aviation approved chronometer above & in-front of your knee (
and, whilst you're at it, try having a guess how much that aviation approved chronometer actually costs?) and / or, if not at work, simply refer to your mobile phone.
Yep...its been a fact of aviation for 100 years...the size of a pilot's watch is inversely proportional to the size of his genitalia, something to do with compensation. The really "special" and delicate ego's would wear their "Ray Ban" cases on their belts...
