That's amazing! I've even noticed that my new Aviator alarm seems to run longer than I expected. I haven't bothered to time it. Been too busy wearing it. Maybe I should. I doubt it will go for 60 hours, but it might go for 50 or so. I like the looks of your's too Ken. Is it 43mm or 45mm case size? I've seen it shown both ways. |

I measured it and it is 45mm.....................wow1 I could have sworn it wasn't over 44mm:D. Doesn't seem to wear quite that large though! I believe it comes in 3 different dial selections. mcwright wrote: That's amazing! I've even noticed that my new Aviator alarm seems to run longer than I expected. I haven't bothered to time it.

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! |
