Pilot watches

Practical over and over..

I’m lucky enough to get to fly aircraft for a living, and the search for the perfect watch has been a thirty five year journey. Who could have predicted that this humble Casio is probably the best working pilots watch ever?

That's one great looking watch! Where'd you source the rubber strap, if you don't mind my asking?

·

It is the original band that came with the watch. Trimmed to fit my 6 1/2 inch wrist so the tail of the strap doesn’t stick out the other side. It’s extremely comfortable.

·

That is a great watch! The golden case and the black strap looks good together. Casio makes another one you might like as an actual pilot! The AE2000W-1AV looks like it has a artificial horizon and everything!

Oh, that one is just dynamite! I’ve never seen it before!… Well, here we go down the new rabbit hole😂🤣😎

Such a cool job. You get to drive in 3D!

Citation is a beautiful airplane! Just did my pattern solo on the 22nd, working towards ATP!

The Casio Royal, lot of bang for the price

Indeed it’s a gem to fly. My weekend trip went from Coeur D’alene Idaho to Phoenix to Savannah. Then to Tampa and Salina and back home to Idaho. Blessed everyday to get to do it

Nice! Does it wear “big”? It’s got great presence, I hope I can get away with it…..

Yup!! And to think what I’ve spent on all the other Pilot Watches I just couldn’t live without 😂😎

Hahaha! yup!

No, way smaller and lighter than my Breitlings. If you're really in love, I could sell it to you (all box and papers). Not sure if this is allowed so here...

By the way, that artificial horizon is fake, it's basically a symbolic 10-seconds counter...

Your Casio is arguably the perfect pilots watch when it comes to a functional standpoint but as a romantic, I like the idea of using a mechanical chronograph in the cockpit. And now let’s share our best cockpit pics! I love a good sunset from 30k feet. Thanks to @dfbosworth for sharing some of yours.

Nice… But I think the real story here is how incredible your work is, @Dbosworth 👌🏻🛩️🛩️

·

That is just a stunning photograph… I’d love to see that on about a 6 foot wide canvas on my wall… What’s the aircraft type? I’m only guessing perhaps a Falcon?

You mean a 20k grey market Rolex Pepsi isn’t required??? lol.

Breitling Aerospace, but this is hard to beat. Really a sharp package!
