Priced and designed for me
As a US Army helicopter instructor pilot, I need a good watch for a low price that I don't have to worry about getting rained on, beat up, scratched, knocked around, dropped and surviving the heat and the cold. It needs to give me military time with an easy to see sweep second hand. It needs to look military with a flat black case and an olive drab face. It needs to provide me with an easy to see date and the ability to easily stop and restart the time so I can synchronize my time with the mission. It needs to have a comfortable flat black nylon velcro closing band so that it will come away in an emergency but stay firmly fastened on the outside of my flame resistant flight gloves in a 100 knot wind when the doors of my helicopter are removed. It needs to have a guard to protect the crown from snagging on my flight equipment. Sure, I could buy a $300 dollar watch that could do all of that, or, I could buy this watch. Thanks Timex.
