Puma clock
An instant brain flash said it began with a 'B' and it wasn't Breitling. We were told that it was the same as in the Concorde. Clockwork timepieces were compulsory at that time.

There was an earlier version than that one.
Btw, that's a stopwatch, not a clock!

IIRC the AS330J had the same clock as the Puma. The photo of the J's cockpit in Airliners.net show the a clock with the second hand dial at the bottom, as does the picture of the Concorde's cockpit.
However it could have well been a Thommen.

Rotor monkey,
That's the later version. The original aircraft clock had to be manually wound up.
