Thanks for the case measurement. I may have to get one.

I thought I would follow-up with a time measurement on the Aviator Alarm. I took a wild guess above that the Alarm version might go for 50 hours (it's rated at 42 hrs.). I based that on the fact it has a second alarm winding mechanism stuffed into the smaller 40mm case. I figure they have to compromise somewhere.

Well, I got about 49 hrs. and 38 minutes out mine on the first try. And, I'm not sure I got the very last bit of wind out of it. So, if I tweaked it a notch more I actually might have hit my guess of 50 hours. Not too shabby!
