As a matter of interest, what wristwatches do all you pilots wear?

I'm the proud owner of a Breitling Aerospace Professional (Even as a wannabe I HAD to have one). Wanted the Emergency but really couldnt justify £3.5K.

Cheap Casio which I throw away and buy another when the batteries run out.

Do I get the impression that someone is trying to tell me something about my "Flash G*t" watch?

Not at all Lardy,

I'm sure your watch looks fantastic. It's just that I can use mine when I'm fixing the old (and also cheap) motor, and not worry about it. My Boeing comes fitted with two very expensive clocks with do the job very neatly. (They are probably not as good as Airbus ones though!)

cheap Timex digital with 2 time zones. Course the cockpit has 3 clocks all on GMT. Not afraid to lose it.

Digital (easy to read)
Alarm (nightstopping on earlies)
Stopwatch (for playing the see-how-quickly-you-can-stop-it-game on long turnarounds)
Light (for when it's dark)
Day & Date ('cos my body clock is ALWAYS f**ked)

And it ALWAYS stays on UTC!

only from USA, beautiful watch, bracelet snapped and battery stopped within 8hrs of delivery. Sent back and got a new one with postage and tax refunded.

Accurist £50 had for 5 yrs one battery no problems and a nice watch> Damn yanks

Still prefer the chase though, and it has been good as gold since
