The Watch Pilots Dream About!
« on: October 21, 2008, 04:23:21 PM »
I was surfin' around looking at interesting/different/goofy gadgets etc. and suddently found this and thought: That's made for a pilot! ::rofl::



Musk MR2129
The case has a diameter of 9cm (3.5") and the watch is listed as weighing 0.715 kg (1.577 lbs)
The watch however isn't waterproof at all ::)

If you're still interested then a price-tag of 108000 Yen is listed (I assume that's japanese Yen).
According to XE.com that's:

1580 Australian Dollars
1313 Canadian Dollars
1077 US Dollars
822 Euros
638 UK Pounds

Hmm that's about the price of a British Airways round-trip ticket from Denmark to California.

Looks like another left turning tendency has been added (unless you wear it on the right)
WOW I did that!

Oh MAN, that is good, Chuckar!   :D

Wouldn't it be perfect, if the student in the left seat on the big checkride day, could turn to the Examiner and answer the usual question "What three factors cause the airplane to turn left?" with a FOURTH factor??!??

"Uh, and you ALSO have the left-turning tendency because of this massive, incredibly cool, yet not-too-showy Pilot Watch...."
