Nice, solid watch
by Mike from HOUSTON TX USA 
Pros: E6B, feels like a quality watch
Cons: Convex glass (see review)
Review: I collect watches and own watches worth anywhere between $10 and $7,000. This watch certainly feels like it belongs in the high end of the spectrum. It has a good, hefty feel about it, keeps good time, has a date window and the E6B part is nice if you are a pilot, too. I initially thought the orange face may glow in the dark, but unfortunately it doesn't, no problem though. I have the leather band and it is very thick, I can see it lasting a long time. The one thing about it I would change if I could is the glass. It is convex and rises past the steel frame of the watch, which means when striking something of equal or greater hardness, the glass may scratch. Some other watch makers recess the glass below the watch casing. I have an old Tag Heuer that has had the crap beaten out of it - the glass is perfect as it is recessed. My Chronoswiss however has a scratch in the Sapphire Crystal as it is not recessed. Just a small issue, but one that is relevant for sure. I do like this watch and 2 of my friends have the identical one (I make sure I wear a different watch when I am out with them!).

Nice Watch
by Mike from Houston TX 
Pros: E6B, bright face, dual time zone.
Cons: Not aware of any!
Review: I've been collecting watches for several years and have spent anywhere between $10 and $7,000 on a watch. I'd been after this watch for about a year after I'd seen a mate with one. This is a very solid feeling watch, my wife just bought it for me for our anniversary. This is a great watch for the looks and functionality of the E6B, if that's what you're looking for. I like the idea of being able to make quick calculations on the fly...but I'll probably never use that in flight and just go by rule of thumb calcs when necessary....I don't like to let go of helicopter controls if I don't have to. Anyway, for the price of this watch, I think it's probably worth the money. And I buy from this website because they have customer reviews...

Proved itself TIMEafter TIME!!!!!
by Peggy Gardner from Crystal Springs, Mississippi 
Pros: loves all the computations that the watch performs & the leather band is much lighter than the metal
Cons: don't know of any
Review: I purchased this watch for my son's Christmas present. He had been very specific in his description of what he wanted the watch to do and was very pleased when he opened it up. It took me a while to get my order finalized, but we are well pleased with the result. The original order was for this watch but with a white face -- it had been discontinued. I, in what I thought was a good thing, reordered but moved up to the chronagraph watch with a stainless steel bamd thinking he would be even more pleased. WRONG!!!!! So I returned it and ordered the final result. He is terribly happy with it and so pleased with all of it's functions. I know he will enjoy this watch for years to come. Thank you for your wonderful customer service. Y'all were always so patient and anxious to please when I called. Your free express delivery to make sure his watch got here for Christmas was so considerate as well. And again when I was having trouble applying for this rebate you again went above and beyond to make sure your customer was satisfied. Thank you so much -- we will be back!!!!

Reasonable purchase
by David the Yak-50 driver from Glebe . Australia 
Pros: Value for modest outlay
Cons: Buy Breitling if you want
Review: All the mechanicals worked as expected. The instruction booklet was actually incorrect in one of its examples of how to use the circular slide rule, but people familiar with such devices probably wouldn't need to read it anyway!

Compared to the photos, the watch was just a little less "bling" in reality. But it is after all, modestly priced.
