With only battery changes, this quartz gem still works like a charm. Thanks to pages like this, TGV, and Marc at LIW, I just pulled the trigger last week and received the sna411 two days ago from Jomashop. I'm liking it a whole bunch, and hoping it will show the same robustness it's ancestor continues to display. Keep up with the great videos.

I've had mine just over a week, and I'm not disappointed with it. Bought it as a bit of fun. You can leave it in the watch box, and the next time you go to wear it, you don't have to worry about winding up, as it's good to go being quartz.

I'm a weirdo with a slide rule collection, so this (and its solar powered cousin the SSC009) have both been on my wrist. For work I frequently need to convert between feet & meters or miles & km, so the unit conversions on the bezel are surprisingly useful.

[@metatechnologist]

Slide rules are making a comeback thanks to the interwebs! You must know that there are a few watches that have actual working circular slide rules on them! Really kind of rare but they do exist! There was one on kickstarter recently as well by "Caliper". Edit corrected name.

[@bernardpaulsen825]

I used to fly planes, all the way to twin-engine turboprops, and I do own a Flightmaster as well. I bought it as a replacement for my Breitling Navitimer Cosmonaute Ref. 809 that I foolishly sold about 8 years ago for, if memory serves me, around $1,650. The Flightmaster costs less than a simple service of the Navitimer, and it has a wonderful wrist presence. In my opinion, it looks way about its price point, although I had to pay $315 for an open box item but price are already around the $400 mark. A great all around watch to own indefinitely!

[@christophernewman2817]

I have one and I absolutely love it. It’s really comfortable, looks a million quid and goes with just about everything. I’ve definitely bought in to the cult of the flightmaster!

[@carllange3950]

I looked at this watch about a year ago, but ended buying the SND253P1-4. Currently only $130, with a less busy dial and a better chronograph function (12 hour totalizer and 1/20 second resolution), but only 100m WR. I did end up gifting that watch to a friend, in a generous moment after I bought a Citizen Blue Angels World Chronograph AT8020-54L (a major step up in features, quality and price).

[@dashstarkiller913]

It’s a fun watch. I have the “gold” version on a 21mm black leather strap. And the point you brought up about it being the “pick up anytime” quartz in a box full of autos is spot on!

[@JR-gp2zk]

I like the Citizen Nighthawk and this Seiko Flightmaster for the GMT function and 200m water resistance. Great for a travel watch. I can't even read the pilot bezel on either of them due to the small print, even if I did know how to use them.

[@JohnClarkW]

I still think the Citizen Nighthawk is the cooler looking inexpensive slide rule pilots watch, but it isn't a chronograph. I use the slide rule occasionally for unit conversion, so it is pretty handy. It is also a 200m watch, and it has a GMT hand and the hour hand can be set in one hour increments without changing the minutes or seconds, which is cool when you are travelling.

No doubt Seiko will be discontinuing it soon and replacing it with something inferior that costs more. I'm so jaded...

I’ve had it for three years now and it stays on a sail cloth strap. There are many strap choices available at 21 mm now and a 22 mm marine nationale strap fits perfectly. It’s a fun watch to wear, It looks great and the original batteries going strong 3+ years in.

[@a_z.tazzzfan8497]

As usual; great presentation and review. I've owned this watch about a year. As with most that buy this watch, I only use the chrono and alarm features. I love that Seiko made the crown and function pushers screw-down. How many people actually utilize their time pieces in regards to what they're designed for... F1 or other racing, Diver, Aviation, etc.? I have 30+ Divers rated from 200 - 1000m but have never been more than 40 ft beneath the surface. I love collecting the different types of specialty watches. The best part is that I have family, friends or work associates that have experience utilizing their true functions. It's fun to watch them "play" with watches especially when they explain to me what they're doing. My favorite experience was letting a coworker "use" my Flightmaster. Surprisingly, he enjoyed it. He had been a navigator on a B-52 and most of the squadron had Breitling's.

I've always been a bit shocked when this watch beats the Citizen Nighthawk in head to head reviews. If you can find a good strap to match both main colour & the red features on the dial, the Nighthawk looks incredible. It always seemed to get panned on the fact it wasn't a Seiko, but as we well know, that isn't always a bad thing.

Jody - Seiko uses that chrono movement everywhere! It is remarkable. Note - you can use that Alarm for a second time zone. Instead of setting it to current time, then the alarm, just set the time on the alarm to the desired timezone.

[@iandocena4208]

Love my flighty, of all the features I use the unit conversions the most. The bracelet is good and bad at the same time. Solid endlinks are always nice. The polished center links, help the watch dress up a bit but the center line in them kills it. I ended up getting a 21.5mm super engineer bracelet (meant for the seiko tuna) with straight links, and shaved down the ends (with a dremel) to fit. Love it to bits, always gets a worried reaction from my friends when I jump into the water with it haha.

[@JackAndAmandaGoode]

Already had this on my list. Your review confirmed what I loved about it. Thanks!

[@khronokraze]

I had this for a short while. It's a great watch for the price. Love the yellow accent on it. Often discounted and up on Mass Drop a lot.. I think for around $200, not a bad watch at all. Couple notes that might be worth considering should you keep this watch for a while and information of interest below: - I appreciate it comes with a bracelet option, although this is probably best paired with NATO/Zulu or 2-piece strap. That being said, I never liked the high-polished double center links. It looks cheap, especially since you can see the seam between the 2 pieces.. why they did this and not just make 1 solid center link, IDK? I remedied and improved it by brushing it out to match the brushed finish of the rest of the bracelet which looks a lot better. It even helps reduce that thin seam in the middle, also. - As you know, it's obviously a strap monster, but, the spring bars are really close to the case. I recommend getting a set of curved spring bars, 21mm.. Yes, it's an odd lug/strap space. BUT, you should have no problem fitting 20mm straps to this as the 0.5mm gap on either side is negligible. Attacking from the opposite end, you can squeeze in perhaps the next most common strap size of 22mm. With the aforementioned use of curved spring bars, it will facilitate such attempts. - There are many cool complications and features on the watch.. mainly to look at and rarely, if ever, to be used in practice. The alarm subdial on the bottom. It is a bit finicky to actually set the alarm if you've read or familiar with how to do it. As such, I might set and possibly use it as a 2nd-time zone instead, a pseudo-gmt. If you like this, maybe you might like the rarer panda white dial blue subs variant SNA413? You say that you are not into vintage, but you may at least want to familiarize yourself with the older automatic Flightmaster SBDS001 which I believe you will find pretty cool and be more useful to you overall in terms of the details and features.

[@randynovick7972]

I picked up one of these awhile back when I saw TGVs review. I hadn't really ever considered a slide-rule pilot watch before that. What got me was the depth of the thing. You can look at it for the time and see one thing, look further and you see the chronograph, look further and you have the alarm, ticking seconds and dual-time, look further and you have conversions to your heart's content. It's like staring into the depths of a successively complex bowl of complication. Yet, it's also legible, not very monstrous and can take a beating. So I roll it out every now and again and enjoy it. Lately, I've had more wrist time with the Arnie reissue, but I come back to the flightmaster and it feels like I never put it down.

[@christopherkimball4867]

I’m going to say I’m in a rare camp of being a pilot, a diver, and a watch enthusiast, but if I’m really honest, in both diving and flight watch’s have been made as obsolete by better interments, as the have in everyday wear. I actually have a Garmin MK25 that works as a technical tri-mix dive computer and will communicate with flight instruments in a plane “hell I’m fairly certain in I can set auto pilot with it in the right plane”. That being said, I still value the capability of using the traditional tool watches as a redundant back up gear “even though I could remember one of the damn slide-rule conversions to quite literally save my life”.

Single engine planes are surprisingly economical in the states, you can get a used one for the price of a good quality used pickup truck ~$15-20K.

[@RedZeshinX]

It also has a tachymeter and a compass bezel, something you don't see often in combination with a chronograph, alarm AND slide rule. It definitely is feature-packed. Also the slide rule can be used for any calculations, for example you could use it to figure out how much to tip at a restaurant, engineers and mathematicians could use it for quick on-the-go math as well. Just like the chronograph can be used to time laps or the tachymeter can be used to calculate how many envelopes you can seal in an hour, all these features are useful in aviation in the event of electronics failure but certainly aren't limited to it.

When I was driving school bus, that alarm was a great reminder to get back to work between routes. And the chrono was perfect for timing brake checks. Interesting note, the alarm chime sounds different depending on if the chrono is running or not. @6:28 The chime goes once per second, but the chrono somehow makes it sound choppy. Kinda weird.

I'm a former commercial pilot who owned 3 aircraft (all 11 seaters setup for freight) and I would never use my Flightmaster in the aircraft - impossible to use in flight in smaller aircraft. Like most pilots I used a 3.75" pilot's circular slide rule (fits in the shirt pocket) that could be more easily read inside the aircraft and had a ton more features needed by a pilot. Also I always used a sub-$50 digital watch with 2 time zones and full backlighting. Pilots need UTC and local time - that's all we need a watch for. But, I just love the look of my Flightmaster.

I’ve regretted selling my first one and can’t wait to get it back in my collection… Having owned it I can share that it is a great wearing watch and the NDC style/Parachute stretch cord straps work wonderfully and makes it even better wearing watch...It is a great alternative 28 die watch…

I know how to use a slide ruler and I'm not a geek. Mine arrived yesterday from JomaShop. Now that it's in my hand I understand why it's TGV's favorite Seiko.

If you own an X-Wing Fighter, then it is prudent to wear a Seiko Flightmaster for a redundant system just in case R2D2 is taken out during an engagement with an Imperial TIE Fighter.

I can see some of the appeal, the water resistance, sweeping second hand, and alarm are quite nice. Maybe a bit too busy for me but I guess if I had enough watches it could find a place in the collection.

I own one, and wore it daily during my flight training some ten years back.

I wear this usually on a so called killer bee nato strap, black with a yellow line in the middle, matches the chrono hand, 21mm wide. You can get some curved spring bars, and most natos will fit it nicely.

I love this watch, and I plan on owning one someday. Great video, and I love your tongue in cheek presentation!

i use a pilot watch to do basic calculations, working out average speed, distance and few other stuff. its cool once you know how to use it

[@antonbjerketorp2764]

I own it, a true tool watch. So many memories going through life with it on my wrist.

Good looking watch ive got a gold coloured on a tan strap , it turns heads as people try to figure it out.
