Has anyone tried this thing out?
(Oris Altimeter automatic wristwatch)
I’d come across this watch while browsing around for cool pilot watches and initially I thought it was unlikely that it would function in any real capacity.
But I did a bit of research and apparently it has an android wafer under the watch movement and a little static port that you actuate via the 4:00 crown.
Being that it would take the reading from inside the cabin would render it pretty imprecise, but I got to thinking that it could be a handy backup to the alternate static source?
This being the flying subreddit I was wondering if anyone has this watch and tried it while flying non pressurized GA aircraft. All the reviews I see on it are from watch reviewers that comment on looks etc but nobody I could find actually tried it in the cockpit.
