[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 2560684, member: 229"] I understand this more and more these days, but man there is just something about a throwback to the times when digital timers and smart-phones weren't out there and folks had only these analog chronographs, tachymeters, or slide-rules to perform calculations and they were built into the watches for sort of a mission-specific purpose. I typically turn off the cell phone when hiking/camping, so that is really the time I get to use my watch-gadgets the most, but I find that if I see someone with a killer gadget on his wrist, I might even ask him about it (sort of like a certain cop on here who has a hankerin for K/L frames :thumb: ).
