Strengths:
Looks, accuracy, information available on face, ironic mix of digital and analog (great conversation), fun (as watches go)
Weaknesses:
Wrist movements press stem, changes functions, including cities making the displayed date "the next day". LEDs sometimes hard to read. Alarm of no value with "male-pattern" hearing l
Summary:
Checking against a radio-controlled clock, Skyhawk stays exact for months (I've adjusted the time once). It's digital with faux analog face. But its calculator is pure analog--a circular slide rule (hard to adjust and read)! Where other watches add (digitally), Skyhawk multiplies (analogically)--museum of digital and analog technologies. With so many functions designed into multi-function stems and buttons, I took substantial part of London flight to get the hands reset. This electronic version permits adding cities for times (my earlier mechanical version does not). I wish it vibrated for the alarm.

Well that "calculator" on the side is actually an E6-B flight computer....and guess what...even pilots don't really use those for flight calculations anymore. I should know....I'm one of 'em. It's purely for looks and maybe the occasional pilot who gets bored and wants to see if he remembers how to use an E6-B. It isn't meant for normal math calculations.
