As any professional pilot will replica watches uk attest, there is nothing
As any professional pilot will replica watches uk attest, there is nothing quite like the freedom of flight – bursting through clouds at 10,000 feet, the cockpit flooding with light as you arc upwards into the clear blue sky. But that freedom is based on technical calculations that a true aviator must be able to make with or without the aid of cockpit instruments.

Hamilton has provided the flying community with the precision timepieces they need for over a century, from the first U.S. Airmail service in 1918 to today’s daredevil air rolex replica racers. With the Khaki Aviation Converter, the brand is enabling crucial flying calculations to be performed on the wrist of modern aviators.
The watch’s distinguishing feature is a bi-directional rotating bezel, whose logarithmic gradations interact with the fixed scale around the dial, creating a ‘slide rule’ enabling mathematical calculations while in flight. This can be applied to critical factors like airspeed, distance, fuel consumption, rate of climb or descent and flight time – in fact, it follows the same principles as the E6B “Whiz Wheel,” a paper flight computer that’s still used widely in pilot training replica watches today.
The slide-rule bezel is also handy for carrying out various unit conversions: kilometers/nautical miles, pounds/kilograms, feet/meters for instance, or currency conversions for those flying internationally.
