It’s a T-6, not a jet. The mirrors are more useful than you would think.

I guess ~6 G's on a roller coaster, although obviously for a very brief period. It's been on a lot of roller coasters in the ~5G range.

(However, I also imagine that just the action of me swinging my arms around generates more g-forces on the watch than any roller coaster.)
